Following the success of De Bortoli Wines’ multi-award winning Woodfired Heathcote Shiraz, the family-owned winery has added a dark fruited, rich yet soft Cabernet Sauvignon to the range.
Sourced from De Bortoli’s vineyard at Corop in Northern Heathcote, Victoria’s home of big reds, and crafted by Chief Winemaker Steve Webber, Woodfired wines are dense and complex with ripe dark fruits, cedar-wood and balance.
The Woodfired Heathcote Cabernet Sauvignon has already taken out the ‘Best Cabernet’ trophy at the 2019 Heathcote Wine Show.
“There is a renaissance to charcoal cooking and woodfired oven cuisine. We are always looking for wines to match and our new Woodfired Heathcote Cabernet Sauvignon strikes all the right notes,” said Webber. “The climate and deep red ancient Cambrian soils of Northern Heathcote are ideal for producing the perfect red wine to accompany chargrilled meats and artisan pizzas.”
Presented in an elegant claret bottle, De Bortoli Woodfired Heathcote Cabernet Sauvignon 2018 has a RRP of $22 and will be available at leading independent liquor retailers.
