Majella GPL68 Cabernet Sauvignon 2014
In 1968 George Patrick Lynn, Patriarch of the Lynn family allowed his sons Brian and Anthony to plant vines on the family’s Coonawarra property “Majella”. The vineyard prospered, more vines were planted and eventually, a winery was built and Majella Wines as we now know it was established. George passed away in 1976 aged only 50, but in his memory, we are proud to present this wine, the Majella “GPL68”, as a fine example of Cabernet Sauvignon at its very best.

The Cabernet Sauvignon fruit destined to become the GPL68 starts fermentation in a red stainless steel fermenter and finishes fermenting in new French oak hogsheads. The wine is then aged for another 18 months in the same barrels before being individually assessed by our winemaking team. Only up to eight barrels are selected to become GPL68 Cabernet Sauvignon. Displaying a robe of dark purple to magenta-purple colours with bright ruby hues around the rim, the nose opens up with dark & intense black fruit aromas with hints of classic Majella mint. On its classy palate, powerful mouth-filling flavours of varietal fruit are revealed together with well-defined tannins through to its long finish.
