PENLEY ESTATE COONAWARRA CABERNET SAUVIGNON STEYNING 2014

Penley Estate harnesses the legendary Terra Rossa soils of Coonawarra, where rich red clay loam overlaying limestone bedrock creates the perfect foundation for world-class Cabernet Sauvignon. Founded by the Tolley family as descendants of two pioneering South Australian wine dynasties, this sustainable estate operates 240 acres of vineyards under the guidance of acclaimed winemaker Kate Goodman, whose minimal intervention philosophy allows the unique terroir to shine through extended oak aging and natural clarification methods. Their 2014 Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon represents the culmination of this approach, showcasing the cool climate influence of southerly ocean winds and the mineral complexity imparted by the region's ancient limestone base, delivering the structured elegance and distinctive regional character that has established Penley as one of Australia's premier Cabernet producers since their gold medal-winning debut in 1989.
