Wine Making

The Evenfall Cabernet Sauvignon 2022 is crafted from carefully selected fruit grown in Tasmania’s cool-climate vineyards, allowing for a long, slow ripening period that enhances the wine’s natural acidity and aromatic complexity.

After hand-harvesting, the grapes undergo cold maceration to extract vibrant colour and delicate flavours. The wine is then fermented in stainless steel to retain its fruit purity, followed by maturation in French oak barrels for added complexity and subtle oak influence.

The fine gravelly tannins are a result of careful oak aging, contributing to the wine’s refined texture and structure. This Cabernet Sauvignon showcases the balance between fruit intensity and savoury complexity, making it an excellent candidate for cellaring.

Meet the owners

Evenfall sits on one of the Tamar Valley's oldest vineyard sites, first planted at Legana back in 1972 and known over the decades as Powercourt, then Elmslie, before Tasmanian-born berry entrepreneur Richard Winspear took it on and gave it its current name. Evenfall now shares its restored cellar door and restaurant with neighbouring label Bellebonne, with winemaker Liam McElhinney crafting Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Cabernet Sauvignon from some of the oldest Cabernet vines in the state. It's a genuinely collaborative corner of the Tamar, home to several of the region's most exciting names under one roof.

Tamar Valley

About the region

The Tamar Valley is Tasmania's oldest wine region, stretching from Launceston to the Bass Strait in the state's north. Its cool maritime climate and iron-rich soils create ideal growing conditions, and the numbers speak for themselves, home to over 30 family-owned wineries, the Tamar Valley accounts for more than a third of Tasmania's total wine production. Viticulture here goes back a long way too, with the first commercial vineyard established in the mid-1800s at Windermere, its cuttings even helping establish some of South Australia's earliest vineyards. Today, the Tamar Valley is celebrated for its Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Riesling and sparkling wines, each one reflecting the region's exceptional terroir and winemaking heritage.
