Winemaker Robert Black
Vintage: current
Region Bunnamagoo Cabernet Sauvignon was made with fruit from the Eurunderee vineyard near Mudgee NSW.
Bunnamagoo's winemaker, Robert Black, macerated the skins for 5 weeks to produce this medium bodied wine exhibiting traditional Mudgee earthy aromas with cassis and herbal notes. The solid tannin structure marries well with rich red berry fruit and a spicy finish influenced by maturation in old and new French oak hogsheads.

The historic homestead and 5,000 acres of prime grazing land at the Bunnamagoo Estate lie between Bathurst and Oberon in Central Ranges,New South Wales,Explorer Country; the other Paspaley vineyard is at Eurunderee, in the Mudgee district, 200 kilometres away. This Central Tablelands area of New South Wales was chosen as the site for some of the earliest vineyards in the colony including the first plantings of chardonnay by Adam Roth in 1858 on a land which now forms part of the Eurunderee vineyard. It is hardly surprising that the area has found its place among the best wine regions of Australia
