Berton Vineyard High Eden Cabernet Sauvignon

Description

Berton Vineyard High Eden Cabernet Sauvignon is made from vineyards located in High Eden which is a sub-region of the the Eden Valley wine region within the Barossa wine zone.

Berton Vineyards was established by Bob & Cherie Berton in May 1996 with 75 acres of land at 450m above sea level on gently rolling hills in a sub-region of Eden Valley /em> in South Australia. In 2007 Bob purchased the Yenda winery in the heart of the Riverina. This state of the art facility has the capacity to process 10,000 tonnes, and allows Berton Vineyards to produce value for money wines which sit alongside his premium single vineyard offerings. Set in High Eden, a region of rugged beauty between Eden Valley and the Barossa the Cabernet Sauvignon for this wine is grown on ancient podsolic soils that offer lots of quartz rock and little other sustenance. The High Eden is a high altitude, cooler climate wine growing area. This coupled with the poor soils and low rainfall means the vines tend to be low-yielding producing smaller amounts of more concentrated fruit.
