McPherson Family Vineyards Jock's Cabernet Merlot 2023 x 12
A jack of all trades, Jock McPherson had a wild and varied career as a writer, soldier, fisherman, publisher and PR man. His passion however, was winemaking. He planted his first vineyard in 1968, eventually passing it on to his only son Andrew.
The grapes for this Cabernet Merlot were picked
and crushed during the cool of night, thus
ensuring the retention of varietal character.
Modern winemaking techniques were employed
throughout, all of which help to create the
signature McPherson style. Fermentation took
place in sweeping arm red fermenters, giving
the wine a denser, richer colour and allowing for
gentle flavour extraction. Softer tannins are also
a result of this process, an important feature of
the McPherson Cabernet Merlot style. Oak for
this wine was predominately French oak and
this wine was aged on oak for approximately 6
months, giving the wine a noticeable, but not
excessive oak influence.
Varietal composition 70% Cabernet Sauvignon
and 30% Merlot
