Growing Conditions
A cool dry winter and hot start to summer had us bracing for another difficult vintage. Thankfully, we received some welcome rain at the start of February which helped to keep the vines fresh. Cool temperatures during February and March were perfect for vines to ripen exceptional flavours. Vines are 50+ years old.
Vineyard
The Enterprise Vineyard was planted in 1969 and is located at the northern end of the Clare Valley. The 52Â year old vines grow on red loam soils and produce distinctive Cabernet Sauvignon renowned for its depth of flavour, elegance and fine-grained tannins. The Enterprise Cabernet Sauvignon has been a single vineyard since 1974.
