Hollick Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon 2021 - 6 Bottles

Background

Hollick Estates is a boutique winery located on the famed terra rossa soils of the Coonawarra region in South Australia. Founded in the 1970s, Hollick has built its reputation on vineyard‑focused wines that reflect the unique soil, climate, and winemaking craftsmanship of this prestigious region.

Vineyards & Vintage Conditions

The 2019 vintage experienced cool and dry conditions, providing slow and even ripening that allowed for full flavour development and soft, ripe tannins. The shallow terra rossa soils let the vines fight to reach the nutrients they need, producing excellent fruit.

Winemaking

Crafted from estate-grown fruit, the Cabernet Sauvignon underwent traditional winemaking techniques to preserve its delicate aromas and flavours. The wine was fermented in small batches to ensure optimal extraction and then aged in French oak barrels to enhance its complexity and texture.
