2021 Little Frances Eleventh House Cabernets

WINEMAKER: Erin Pooley
REGION: King Valley, VIC

Inspired by restrained clarets of decades past. Red fruits, dusty tannin, savoury herbs from balancing Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Take the worry out of mid-week (or mid-weekend) dinner. Eleventh House is a perfect pairing. Eleventh House Cabernets is made from grapes grown in the King Valley of North East Victoria. Packaged in lightweight glass with an easy to open screw-cap closure. The vibrant labels were designed by artist Lou Benesch.

Sydney-born and raised, but making wine in California since 2012, Erin Pooley has now returned home, basing herself in the historic town of Beechworth. Good farming, light-handed winemaking, and occasional extended ageing of whites are her hallmarks. Semillon forms the flagship of her production, having inspired her to get into wine in the first place. She will continue to make wines from Californian vineyards, as well as working with local growers to put her unique life and winemaking experiences to work.
