Paxton CAB Cabernet Sauvignon
Wine Description
The CAB Cabernet Sauvignon showcases a single varietal blend from Paxton's premium vineyards in Thomas Block and Jones Block, and highlights their biodynamic and organic vineyard practices. 100% made with organic grapes, the winemaker hand selects and blends the top blocks for each vintage to create this very popular Cabernet Sauvignon offering. The CAB shows beautiful varietal expression, with soft tannins, and is ready to drink now, however careful cellaring of 10 – 15 years will be rewarded.

Wine Production
All batches are separately fermented to be blended further down the track. A little new oak in puncheon form helps to digest the chewier tannins, while the rest of the wine is matured in a combination of used French oak puncheons and barriques of varying ages for 7 months.
About the Vineyard
Grapes from the prestigious Jones Block and Thomas Block vineyards are used to craft this Cabernet Sauvignon. As Paxton's vineyard with the coolest climate and some of the oldest vines at 125-years-old, Thomas Block grapes add a dash of spiced character and a touch of elegance.
