Once again, a great growing season at Oxford Landing has helped produce a red wine of richness and concentration. The Oxford Landing Cabernet Sauvignon Shiraz 2001 - 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Shiraz - is deep red in colour with purple hues. Ripe red berries and blackcurrant characters dominate the aroma. The palate is richly textured and layered, boasting sweet plummy Shiraz flavours which are supported by sweet vanillin oak. Subtle tannins and a long flavoursome finish indicate that this wine will age gracefully over the next 5 years.

Oxford Landing Fact

Cabernet Sauvignon is the original and oldest planting at Oxford Landing with some vines in excess of 40 years old. These vines are believed to be some of the first planted in the region.

Cabernet Sauvignon and Shiraz is the definitive Australian wine blend. No other wine style is considered to be as uniquely and unashamedly Australian. Some of Australia’s most legendary wines have been made in this style. The ripe soft flavours and textures of Shiraz marry perfectly with the elegance and power of Cabernet Sauvignon.
