2006 "the Titan" Released 

Fruit from our Matakana vineyard was fermented in open tanks with frequent hand plunging then matured for 12 months in European and American oak barriques. This robust, stylish red wine, made from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon grapes, has a delightful perfumed aroma with rich cassis flavours and a firm backbone of fruit and oak tannins. Enjoy with red meat or cheese.

A great year for Hyperion from some of the oldest grapevines in Matakana. There’s leather and truffle on the nose and rich fruit in the full bodied palate with a backbone of dusty tannins. It’s a star at the big picture wine experience in Auckland. Sue Courtney
