Tasting Note

Bright, pure fruited Cabernet Sauvignon that’s tightly knit yet with generosity and concentration with a red fruit spectrum - think raspberries, cherries, plums… with some darker brooding, brambly structure coming through on the palate. Balancing the fruit, are mineral notes like graphite/pencil shavings, refreshing acidity and tannins that are long and silky. The blend of varietals takes it from great, to exquisite, ‘seasoning’ the wine with an extra layer of flavour, character and texture. All culminating in a wine that is elegant, refined and that will cellar impeccably.

Dominique Portet

Ninth-generation winemaker Dominique Portet chose the cool climate of aptly named ‘Coldstream’ in the Yarra Valley as home to the eponymous winery he founded in 2000. It was the culmination of a tenacious search for a grape growing terroir that could rival that of his native Bordeaux and start a new chapter in a winemaking story that has its roots in France in the early 1700s. Dominique’s son, Ben – 10th generation – now heads the winemaking team, firmly observing the central tenets of this young, yet historic estate: respect for tradition, understanding of site and an open mind towards contemporary practices that shape wines that are ever more refined and delicious.
