Wine Makers Individual Barrel Series GH76 WIBS Barossa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2022
Original price was: $14.70.$10.00Current price is: $10.00.So here we are with the final single barrel bottling. GH76 being the record keeping number. ’75 was when I began selling wine, a better ending, but we have no GH75 barrel. The WIBS idea has worked so lets celebrate that. The first single barrel was bottled in 2019 being from the 2015 vintage. There have been several dozen since. The alcohol at bottling of GH76 was 15% which indicates why we placed this barrel to one side. Beautiful wine which will keep for years. Good value today.
