2020 Paritua Single Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon

Cameron Douglas MS

In stock

A powerful and dark-fruited Cabernet from the organic single vineyard of a great Hawkes Bay producer, Paritua. This exceptional wine is sourced from the estates home vineyard', where dry farmed vines (not irrigated for 10 years) are grown according to a super-premium regime that produces a very light, highly concentrated crop of only one bunch per cane. The result is a Cabernet of piercing dark red fruits and spicy complexities suffused with fine, ripe tannins. A serious food wine now, the Paritua will age for a good many years to come.

$38.99 in mixed 6+ or $43.99 per bottle

Its Origins

Paritua Vineyards is located on Maraekakaho Road in the heart of the Hawkes Bay 'Triangle’ District, one of New Zealand's most diverse regions for the production of both premium red and white grapes. The vineyard Paritua as a tribute to the Paritua Stream, which meanders gently through the land. It is a name that also acknowledges the connection with the land and the people of New Zealand. Inspiration for the name 'Stone Paddock' came from the free-draining, stony soils that make up Paritua Vineyards. The stones featured on the Stone Paddock label were gathered from the Syrah and Cabernet blocks. In July 2008, talented winemaker Jason Stent joined the Paritua team, working over 120 acres of vineyards.

What The Critics Say

95/100 and Outstanding Cameron Douglas MS

"Almost opaque core of dark purple and red with a lighter hued rim lead to a bouquet of power and concentration, aromas of blackberry and clove, new leather and roasted plum, violets and dark cherry then sweet tobacco and iron clay earthy qualities. Bold and weighty on the palate with firm tannins and concentrated flavours of berries and spices that reflect the bouquet. Long finish and complex with best drinking from late 2024 through 2034+."
