Cabernet | Timo Mayer

Timo sources his Cabernet from Yering, which is slightly warmer than his Bloody Hill vineyard. The wine is whole-bunch fermented with wild yeasts. Spicy and stalky, it has the classic black and red berry notes of Cabernet with a perfumed freshness. In Timos own words: Stalky shit rocks!
