Tasting Notes

Aroma: Blackberry, black cherry, blackcurrant pastille, with notes of liquorice, cedar, tobacco, clove, and black olive.

Winemaking

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.

About the Vineyard

Nestled on the edge of the Tamar Valley in Tasmania, Evenfall Vineyard is a favourite among the region’s wineries. Our vineyard is meticulously planted with Pinot, Chardonnay, and some of the oldest Cabernet vines in Tasmania, reflecting our heritage as one of Tasmania’s founding sites.

Our eastern-facing slopes benefit from the Tamar River’s moderating influence, which regulates temperature and provides humidity that helps to shield our grapes from harsh UV rays. This natural protection ensures the optimal growth of our vines, contributing to the uniqueness of our wines.

A small creek runs along the southern side of our vineyard, connecting to the Tamar River. This creates a natural breeze way that flows through our vineyard, cooling the grapes as it passes through the leaves, enhancing their quality and flavour.

Evenfall Vineyard thrives, reaching its full potential year after year. Overseen with dedication and expertise, our vineyard continues to produce exceptional wines, reflecting the true character of our unique location.

Our 2022 vintage received much acclaim. Our Pinot Noir in particular receiving 95/100 in industry reviews. We anticipate a similar reception with the release of our 2023 vintage.

Tamar Valley

The Tamar Valley is Tasmania’s oldest wine region, located in Northern Tasmania and stretching from Launceston to the Bass Strait.

This region is renowned for its cool maritime climate and iron-rich soils, which provide ideal growing conditions for producing premium wines.

Home to over 30 family-owned wineries, the Tamar Valley accounts for more than a third of Tasmania’s total wine production. The region has a long history of viticulture, with its first commercial vineyard established in the mid-1800s at Windermere, and its cuttings even contributing to the early vineyards in South Australia.

Today, the Tamar Valley is celebrated for its Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Riesling, and sparkling wines, all of which reflect the region’s exceptional terroir and winemaking heritage.
