Set among the rolling hills of Seppeltsfield, Hentley Farm’s 2024 Cabernet Sauvignon speaks to the vision of founder Keith Hentschke, who planted three hillside blocks against convention — a gamble that continues to pay dividends. The shallow red clay loam over shattered limestone gives rise to fruit that is both bright and finely balanced, showing the hallmark vibrancy of the estate.

In the glass, it brims with blackberry, boysenberry, and blackcurrant, layered with lifted notes of rosemary and mint. The palate is fresh and vibrant, framed by great structure and persistence, carrying intensity without heaviness. This is a Cabernet that captures both place and precision, delivering elegance with an edge of energy.
