Terroir: Warmer sites are chosen to give full ripe grapes with dark colour and soft tannins. Soils from decomposed granite. Hutton soils dominate the sites used for this wine
Vineyard type: Bush Vine, no irrigation
Vineyard type: Bush Vine, no irrigation
The recent demarcation of the Darling district has led to a focus at Darling Cellars on wines which are terroir and varietal specific. The cool and temperate West Coast climate lends itself to a different micro- and mesoclimate which, along with the different types of soil, lead to unique grapes, which we guide into even more unique wines. Having 99% of all vineyards dry land and almost the same percentage as bush vine, this is as close to what nature intended for grapes to be as one can get.

Amazing Grace Cabernet Sauvignon
The 2018 Amazing Grace sees the introduction of our young vines planted in 2013. The wine shows its typical perfume and refined tannins but with a dash of red fruits and added structure. The young vines have been a breath of fresh air and a welcome addition to our final blend. With distinctive notes of blackcurrant, violets and dried herbs, the wine is bold and rich with a mouthful of dark fruits, liquorice and chocolate. Enjoy now or be patient and see this wine develop to its full potential over the next 8-1-years. Decanting recommended.
