Sister’s Run is serious fun and serious wine. The talented, young winemaker Elena Brooks (of Dandelion Vineyards and Heirloom Vineyards fame) wears steel cap work boots every day of course, but carries a pair of high heels in back of the ute for emergencies - like last minute invitations to accept trophies at gala wine show dinners and the like!
A vibrant expression of Cabernet Sauvignon, this wine bursts with blackberries, dark fruits, and the richness of ripe compote. Fresh and lively aromatics are centred on cassis, accented by delicate hints of vanilla and a subtle touch of oak. The palate achieves a harmony between lush ripeness and a deeper, more contemplative depth. Its long, well-structured profile highlights cool, dark berry fruits with a refreshing vibrancy, while refined, textural tannins lend a drying finish that leaves an elegant and lasting impression.
For a perfect pairing, consider stewing beef served alongside creamy mashed potatoes.
Wonderfully ripe with excellent varietal clarity, the wine shows blackcurrant, cigar, clove and cedar characters on the nose. It's mouth-filling and generously textured on the palate, delivering excellent weight and persistency, beautifully framed by chalky tannins. Robust and delectably appealing. At its best: now to 2036
