Since establishment in 1998, Wild Fox have been dedicated to detailed organic, bio-dynamic farming practices. The cleanliness of their soils after years of organic farming is proving to be a major factor in the sensational quality of fruit. The Wild Fox property is A Grade certified by Biological Farmers of Australia. Cabernet Sauvignon is sourced from vineyards which are wholistically managed in tune with the cycles of the sun and moon, graciously receiving the gifts of mother nature, healthy soil, natural sunlight and pure water, to make great wine.
The growers at Wild Fox manage the canopies of their hand pruned vines to capture the sun's health giving rays whilst providing protection from seasonal mildew and rusts. During summer, vines are watered by drip irrigation from natural underground aquifers. The soils are cared for by growing cover crops in the mid rows to suppress weeds while providing layers of slashed and rolled mulch. This practice conserves moisture throughout the heat of summer and protects the activity of the soil's micro organisms. These painstaking but highly rewarding practices heve been supervised and documented by researcher Chris Penfold of Adelaide University's Roseworthy Campus.
TASTING NOTES
Vibrant ruby red colour with purple hues. Ripe fruits of the forest, mulberries and cassis to the bouquet, integrated with dark chocolate and cigar box spice. Uplifting varietal aromas of mint, herbs and leaf are backed by luscious berry fragrances. The palate is full bodied yet refined, displaying dark fleshy fruits, intense upfront flavours complexed by soft chocolate characters. Firm silky tannins provide structure and length.

About Wild Fox Winery
Producing the best tasting, best quality organic wines for the good of our health and the environment is not a job, it is Wild Fox's passion
Established 1998 on Gawler River west of the Barossa Valley, Wild Fox vineyard has been true to the best biodynamic and organic farming practices to produce quality natural wine grapes to make award winning wines. All for the pleasure of the fine wine connoisseur and especially for those with allergies and or indifference to additives. It all began 70 years ago in the village known as Agrelopo, on the historic island of Chios Greece, where they farmed in tune with the cycles of the sun and the moon, coaxing the seasons, to achieve the ultimate nutrition in their produce from the soil, the sun and the rain. Biological farming is a phrase to describe biodynamic and organic farming. Both use innovative, non-chemical techniques for farming in harmony with the environment and providing nutrient rich, healthy soils from which healthy produce is grown. Wild Fox»
