2023 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve

Fire is the element of transformation, the warmth that ripens our grapes, deepens flavour, and builds structure. It's found in the sun-drenched slopes where our fruit grows, in the slow toasting of French oak barrels, and in the glowing ruby hue of this Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve. This wine is an expression of our craftsmanship and the authentic character of our land.

A Sensory Escape

Hand-selected from vineyards with ideal drainage and ripening conditions, each cluster brings rich flavour, natural complexity, and finesse. Minimal intervention in the cellar allows the fruit's character to shine, resulting in a wine of understated elegance.

Aged for 12 months in French oak, this vintage reveals rich aromas of dark berries, cassis, and subtle notes of vanilla and spice. On the palate, ripe blackcurrant and plum unfold with a touch of tobacco, carried by well-integrated tannins and a smooth, lingering texture.

The ruby tones of our hand-painted label are inspired by the elements that shape every bottle at Shale Ridge. In this vintage, Fire brings boldness, warmth, and a refined intensity. Enjoy it now or let it evolve beautifully with age.

It's where rustic charm meets refined taste, turning a simple glass into a treasured moment of connection and a sensory escape.
