Karatta Wines Wildflowers Brush Heath Cabernet Sauvignon [2015] 750ml/Red Karatta Wines Wildflowers Brush Heath Cabernet Sauvignon

A boutique winery named after the historic governor's mansion, founded by a wine-loving couple.

Robe, known as one of South Australia's best resorts and health resorts with its beautiful coastline, is located on the Limestone Coast, 350km south of the capital, Adelaide, and adjacent to the Mt Benson wine region. It has a young history as a wine-producing region, and grape cultivation began in earnest in the 1990s. It is a very small production area with about 5 wineries. Strongly influenced by the Southern Ocean, the air is cooled by sea breezes from spring to summer, allowing the grapes to ripen slowly and forming strong acids.

Carratta Wines was founded in the late 1990s by David and Peg Woods, wine enthusiasts who used to farm livestock in Robe, when they started a vineyard and owned a winery. The Woods purchased Carratta House, the historic governor's official residence built in 1858, in 1988, and named their winery Carratta Wines after it. We own two vineyards close to the coast where the limestone upper layer is covered with terra rossa (red clay) soil, producing elegant wines with a distinctive acidity that takes advantage of the cool climate.

2 company fields

tennison vineyard

Planted in 1997. The farm has been owned by the Woods family for over 20 years, and this is the slope facing east of the dairy farm. The ancient limestone is covered by a layer of red clay (terra rossa). Produces concentrated fruit.

12 mile vineyard

Planted in 1994. Sandy loam layer. It got its name from its location 12 miles (about 19 km) from the Southern Ocean. Strongly influenced by the oceanic climate, the cool breezes that blow in from the sea allow the grapes to grow for a long time, creating an ideal balance of tannins and acidity, resulting in fine and elegant wines. The farm has now converted to organic cultivation, and sparkling wine was also produced in 2017.

Aromas of black currant and subtle herbs. A well-balanced medium-bodied wine with pure red and black fruits covered by light tannins and hints of cedar.
