✨ Technical Specifications
The Wolf Blass Gold Label Cabernet Sauvignon is a distinguished representation of South Australia's premier cool-climate Cabernet region, Coonawarra. Sourced from the region's world-famous 'terra rossa' strip—a unique, shallow red clay soil over a limestone base—this wine highlights the intense varietal character and structural elegance that Coonawarra is celebrated for. Historically, Wolf Blass established the Gold Label tier to showcase regional excellence, selecting only the finest parcels of fruit that define the terroir of specific South Australian appellations. The wine undergoes traditional fermentation followed by maturation in a combination of French and American oak hogsheads, resulting in a seamless integration of dark berry fruits, classic minty eucalyptus notes, and refined, dusty tannins.
🍾 About the Producer
Founded in 1966 by German-born winemaker Wolfgang Blass, Wolf Blass began in a humble tin shed in South Australia's famed Barossa Valley and quickly grew into one of the nation's most celebrated and iconic wine estates. The winery established its global reputation through pioneering cross-regional blending techniques, consistently crafting fruit-forward, structured wines defined by supple tannins and careful oak maturation. Celebrated for an unprecedented four Jimmy Watson Memorial Trophy wins, Wolf Blass produces an acclaimed color-coded portfolio highlighted by the flagship Black Label Cabernet Shiraz, alongside the single-vineyard Platinum Label and signature Gold and Yellow Label expressions.
