Murray Street Vineyards Black Label Cabernet Sauvignon 2019

" Murray Street Vineyards currently farm around 130 acres at Gomersal and 90 acres at Greenock. These plantings comprise Grenache that dates as far back as the 1940s and Shiraz from the 1960s. The vast majority of fruit that finds its way into MSV bottlings is estate grown with very small parcels of fruit from other growers in the region. This fruit is bought with the intention of helping Murray Street workout if they ‘need’ to buy other vineyards in the region. Murray Street have an amazing track record on the accolade front, picking up “Most Successful Australian Exhibitor” at the Decanter World Wine Awards and "Barossa Winery of the Year" at the Melbourne International Wine & Spirits Competition. Never willing to rest on previous achievements, they have continued to invest significantly more money into improving their existing vineyards. The Murray Street Vineyards philosophy is “know the land and there’s only one way to do things, celebrate the DNA from dirt to fruit, preserve that in bottle and then get better at what we do.”

" Winemaker Ben Perkins joined MSW in 2018 and oversaw the completion of the 2018 wines and began quietly steering the wines towards fruit purity and intensity. At the time, we noted that the wines offered less but higher quality oak and a surge in fruit concentration and purity. He is an excellent winemaker."
