2017 Chris Ringland Limit Lodge Cabernet Mataro

Vigneron Adrian Hoffmann and winemaker Chris Ringland have been working together for more than 25 years to develop the Hoffmann Vineyard signature labels; Reservation Shiraz, North Barossa Shiraz, Dimchurch Shiraz and Hoffmann Vineyard Shiraz.

Occasionally, a barrel or small collection of barrels may be singled out and in this case it was a particularly broad Mataro and highly focused Cabernet. This Limit Lodge offering is an opportunity to portray the complexity and unique characteristics of the vintage. When Adrian and I taste the barrels to classify our wines every now and then we’ll decide to bottle a minuscule amount of one of these special lots as a stand alone offering. 1270 bottles filled.
