The MWC Cabernet Sauvignon is a key expression within the McPherson Wine Company's premium portfolio, crafted to showcase the elegant, structured side of Victorian red winemaking. Sourced from select vineyards across Victoria, where cool nights and warm days allow the grapes to develop deep color and complex flavor profiles, this wine benefits from the careful stewardship of winemaker Jo Nash. The winemaking process focuses on preserving the primary dark fruit characteristics of the grape while integrating subtle, savory oak notes through maturation in seasoned French and American oak. This approach yields a wine with a rich core of cassis and blackberry, framed by fine, dusty tannins and a lingering finish, embodying the McPherson family's decades-long dedication to crafting approachable yet sophisticated wines.
