‘The Bandy’ Cabernet Sauvignon was first produced in 2016 as a tribute to my Great Grandfather, Frank Snr.
The 2016 vintage won a Trophy for Best Cabernet Sauvignon at the New Zealand International Wine Show. The next vintage we produced in 2018 won a Gold Medal at the same show.
Normally reserved exclusively for our export partners in New Zealand, we have a small allocation for our mates here in Australia.
Produced from our own estate vineyard in Blewitt Springs, the 2022 ‘The Bandy’ Cabernet Sauvignon shows lifted aromas of red and black fruits while flavours of blackberry, plus and cassis feature on the palate.
