2020 Diana Madeline
The 2020 Diana Madeline vintage was hot and dry. For the old block cabernet sauvignon vines these drought like conditions resulted in the vines producing small berries, and hence the vines were low yielding - .i.e. bunch numbers were average but with low berry weight. This produced a wine of elegance, balance and perfume… effortless.
