"the balnaves' family vineyard is situated at the southern end of the famous coonawarra 'terra rossa' strip. planted in 1975, the vineyard is 48 hectares in size and has been in the family for three generations. the predominant variety planted is cabernet sauvignon. winemaker pete bissell was the qantas winemaker of the year 2005 and balnaves was james halliday's winery of the year in 2008. includes 5.5% petit verdot, matured for 18 months in french oak (60% new). counterintuitively, the wine is every bit as approachable now as its lower-priced siblings. the colour is superb, deep but brilliant, the bouquet laden with ripe cassis fruit, the palate threaded with streams of black fruits, firm tannins and high quality oak. already a great wine, and it has only just begun its journey."
