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.
