Blend: 100% Cabernet Sauvignon
Production: 100 cases
Every aspect of Vangone Estate is about adventure, discovery and exclusivity. From the precarious drive up through hidden backroads, to the breathtaking view that awaits you when you arrive, to the luxurious micro-production Cabernet Sauvignons produced here, Vangone is the ultimate insider’s secret.
Stylistically, Vangone is a phenomenal expression of Cabernet Sauvignon: rich and hedonistic, while refined and textured in equal measure. Proprietor Mark Davidowski and winemaker Sam Kaplan (Arkenstone Estate, Maxem, Momento Mori) produce a unique trio of wines: c.100 cases each of two individual vineyard parcels, Block B and Block D, as well as masterfully combining them into the Estate Cabernet (c.250 cases).
The west-facing Block B has great exposure to the sunshine and the reservoir below has a significant cooling influence. The wine is full of savoury, perfumed aromatics which showcase the luxurious side of the vineyard and highlight the iron rich soils.
