Product Description

Overview

Winery: Thorn Clarke - William Randell

Thorn Clarke William Randell Cabernet is made from 100 percent Cabernet

The William Randell range of wines were created in honor of the family ancestor - the esteemed pioneer William Richard Randell (1824 - 1911). The wines are sourced solely from grapes grown on the family estate vineyards. Wines in this range are only made in exceptional vintages.

The deep red color with purple hues of this wine draw you in. The nose is brimming with notes of fresh blackcurrant intertwined with complexing savory spice. The palate has an integrated French oak influence with notes of toasty cedar accompanied by further notes of briary fruits. A wine with great depth and drive.


Review:

This is a real wine of place with plenty of violets and blueberries on the nose, as well as blackcurrants. There are also leafy notes and black cherries. The palate has a lively feel with nicely detailed tannins, framed in cedary oak and delivered with purity. Long and pure blueberry and black-cherry flavors with generosity at the finish. Very Barossa! Drink over the next decade.

The perfume of Eden Valley is on lovely display here. Wild blueberry and fresh blackberry fruit are in the fore, framed by peppery spice, dried mint, violets and a gentle but present line of chocolatey, toasty oak. The palate shows equal freshness with fine tannins supporting succulent berry fruit and a mint-and-spice finish. Drinking well now, this could cellar another 8–10 years at least. - Christina PICKARD

The Thorn Clarke William Randell Estate

The winery owners are David and Cheryl Clarke (born Thorn) and their son Sam is the manager of the winery. The Thorn-Clarke family has a long history in the Barossa - six generations of involvement in the region's world famous wine industry. The Thorns have been grape growers in the Barossa since the 1870's. David Clarke's passion for the wine industry lead to the planting of the Kabininge vineyard outside of Tanunda in 1987, which represents the start of a deeper involvement by the family in the Barossa wine industry.

The Thorn Clarke William Randell Vineyards

William Randell is sourced from Thorn-Clarke's 33 hectare Kabininge vineyard (81.51 acres) is true Barossa Valley floor terroir. This is the oldest of their 100% family-owned vineyards and is situated in the heart of one of the great wine regions of the world - the Barossa Valley. Kabininge is planted predominantly to Shiraz - the variety for which the Barossa Valley is best known - supported by smaller plantings of Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc. At just 270 metres above sea level and located on dark grey to dark brown carbonaceous soils (known as Bay of Biscay soil) red winegrapes ripen easily here. By monitoring soil moisture levels to limit yield and berry size, we can achieve exceptional red wines with superb varietal flavor and concentration.
