Sister’s Run Old Testament Coonawarra Cabernet

Sister’s Run is serious fun. Our talented young winemaker Elena wears steel cap work boots every day of course, but carries a pair of high heels in back of the ute, only for emergencies, like last minute invitations to accept trophies at gala wine show dinners and the like. The stiletto and boot are Sister’s Run; an independently owned and operated winery with a fierce commitment to making the best wines they can from family vineyards. 

The Old Testament vineyard is located in the heart of the Coonawarra, and this Cabernet is grown by vigneron David Wittwer. Only 8139 dozen made.

Some of us think that Coonawarra is a satellite appellation of Bordeaux, such is the way Coonawarra cabernet can muster Bordelais elegance and tannin and quiet power.

Cellaring:

Nose:

Cabernet’s deep and hidden depths, with traces of bright blackberry essence, cinnamon, cooked beetroot, and violets. The aromatics unfold slowly and meld with an underplayed oak bouquet. Herbs and fecund fields and berries hanging to the cane.

Palate:

The composition makes this red wine a delight now, but certainly augurs well for some bottle age. Acidity and tannins fight it out at the palate’s end before ripe yet taut fruit carries the day..

Varietal Composition:

Cabernet Sauvignon
