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'βthe 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.
