Singlefile Single Vineyard Frankland River Cabernet Sauvignon 2024

Accolades

96 Points – Ray Jordan
“This was a warm to hot vintage throughout Western Australia, but the slightly cooler Frankland River region has tempered the heat, resulting in wines of impressive quality. This is certainly a powerful and expressive cabernet from the season. The colour is deep red and the aromas show a distinct blackcurrant and plummy character with a lift of leafy, cherry-like notes. The palate is plush and opulent through the middle, expressing the variety perfectly, while the support of tannins and neatly weighted oak ensures the wine is carried through to a sustained long finish”

Tasting Notes

• Colour: Vibrant, deep ruby, reflecting the wine’s intensity and richness.
• Aromatics: The nose opens with complex aromas of ripe blueberry, juicy plum, and cassis, layered with hints of oak that add depth and warmth.
• Palate: On the palate, this Cabernet Sauvignon is beautifully mouth-filling, with lush dark fruit flavours balanced by crisp acidity and fine tannins. The texture is smooth, offering a perfect harmony of fruit, oak, and structure.
• Finish: The finish is long and satisfying, with a lingering impression of ripe fruit and a soft, dry tannin structure that invites another sip.

Food Pairing

• Roast Leg of Lamb: The wine’s rich fruit and tannin structure make it a perfect match for a roast leg of lamb, especially when infused with garlic and herbs.
• Hearty Casseroles: A great choice alongside rich, slow-cooked dishes like beef stew or casseroles, where the wine’s acidity balances the richness of the meal.
• Grilled Red Meats: Perfect with grilled steaks or lamb chops, where the wine’s fruit-forward nature complements the smoky flavours.
• Savory Sides: The wine pairs wonderfully with savoury sides like roasted vegetables or creamy mashed potatoes.

Best Serving Temp

Serve at 16-18°C to allow the wine’s full flavour profile to open up, with its complex aromas and silky tannins to shine.

Winemaking

• Harvesting: The grapes for this Cabernet Sauvignon were handpicked at optimal ripeness to preserve the natural fruit character and balance.
• Fermentation: The wine underwent traditional fermentation techniques to extract the best colour, tannins, and fruit flavours.
• Maturation: Aged in oak barrels, the wine developed added complexity, with subtle oak nuances that enhance its vibrant fruit character without overwhelming it.
• Blending & Bottling: After maturation, the wine was blended to achieve a harmonious balance of fruit, acidity, and tannin structure, before being bottled and allowed to rest.

FAQ Wine Terms 🤔

• Cassis: A dark, rich fruit flavour reminiscent of blackcurrant, adding depth and complexity to the wine’s profile.
• Fine-Grained Tannins: Tannins that provide structure without being harsh, offering a smooth texture and a long finish.
• Oak Nuances: The subtle influence of oak barrels during maturation, which adds complexity and hints of spice, vanilla, or toasted wood.
• Mouth-Filling: Describes a wine that is full-bodied, with a texture that fills the mouth with rich, balanced flavours.
• Finish: The lingering taste left on the palate after swallowing, which can reveal further layers of flavour and texture.

I've been ordering from Partners in Wine for three years now - from the UK for my sister living in Perth. Each time they've been bang on with my order including  on time delivery. Kirk has also helped me select my wines from an extensive list.  A very pleasant and friendly company to deal with. I would highly recommend them.
