Named in honor of a family patriarch and crafted with Bordeaux sensibility, the Victor 2017 is a cool-climate Cabernet Sauvignon that defies expectations. Sourced from low-yielding vines rooted in ancient limestone soils, this wine is a study in balance — structured yet supple, powerful yet composed.
Aromas of blackcurrant, cedar, and tobacco leaf unfold into a palate of cassis, graphite, and dark chocolate, framed by fine-grained tannins and vibrant acidity. Extended maturation in fine French oak brings polish and complexity, while the long, savoury finish hints at serious cellaring potential.
This is not your typical Australian Cabernet, it’s a wine of elegance, nuance, and European restraint. Ideal alongside aged cheeses, roast beef, or contemplative evenings.

Terroir
Most of the hard work it takes to produce quality wine happens in the vinyard. The soil, the climatic conditions, the aspect, the bodies of water and many more factors, collectively knwon as "terroir" can influence the flavour of wine and give wine distint minerality, depth and character.
