✨ Tekniske specifikationer
The Eaglehawk range from Wolf Blass is deeply tied to the winery's heritage, named after the majestic bird of prey that serves as the brand's symbol. When German immigrant Wolfgang Blass established his winery in 1966, he named his historic property 'Bilyara'—the local Indigenous word for eaglehawk. This Cabernet Sauvignon is crafted in the signature Wolf Blass style, sourcing fruit from select vineyards across South Australia to achieve a harmonious, approachable blend. It showcases the classic varietal characteristics of dark berries and subtle spice, softened by careful maturation with oak to ensure a smooth, rounded palate that is ready to be enjoyed upon release.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
Wolf Blass blev grundlagt i 1966 af den tyskfødte vinmager Wolfgang Blass. Huset startede i et ydmygt blikskur i Sydaustraliens berømte Barossa Valley, men voksede hurtigt til et af landets mest hæderkronede og ikoniske vinhuse. Vingården opbyggede sit internationale ry på banebrydende teknikker inden for blending på tværs af regioner, hvor målet altid har været frugtdrevne, strukturerede vine med smidige tanniner og velafstemt fadlagring. Wolf Blass har vundet den prestigefyldte Jimmy Watson Memorial Trophy hele fire gange – en hidtil uset bedrift – og er i dag kendt for sin roste, farvekodede portefølje. Denne toppes af flagskibet Black Label Cabernet Shiraz flankeret af enkeltmarksvinen Platinum Label samt de velkendte Gold Label- og Yellow Label-aftapninger.
