The fruit was harvested in the cool of the night from blocks 37 and 38 on the Estates eastern side at an average of 14.0 ºBe on 23rd April 2019. The fruit was destemmed in the winery and fermented in closed static fermenters with pulse air for optimum cap maceration. All parcels were matured in seasoned French oak barriques.
Established in 1972 as one of Australia's pioneer Chardonnay producers, Mountadam was founded by the late David Wynn, without question one of the most significant contributors to the Australian wine industry and an important part of the Mountadam story. In selecting the land for the Mountadam vineyard, Wynn was the first to recognise the potential of a cool, elevated site to produce wines of great elegance and structure, and chose an area high above the Eden Valley, which he named High Eden. At 570 metres above sea level, Mountadam is still to this day one of Australia's most elevated vineyards. As of 2005, the vineyard has been owned by South Australian businessman David Brown, who has made significant investment in vineyard improvement and expansion.
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon
