Winemaker Notes
The color is a medium to deep red with crimson hues. The bouquet reveals rich dark berry fruit and plum aromas, complexed by smoky, spicy oak. These flavors are again evident on the rich palate with tight fruit flavors persisting on the finish. This wine has wonderful and elegant cabernet fruit characters coupled with the softness of merlot.
Viticulture: Sourced from the Limestone Coast region of South Australia, with the majority coming from the Connawarra and Wrattonbully regions. This region is famous for outcrops of red soil that sits above a hard layer of coastal limestone – hence the regions name.
The 2000 vintage had a long cool ripening period allowing maximum fruit development. Yields were well down on the previous year but fruit quality was considered excellent.

Greg Norman, known as much for his entrepreneurial spirit in the boardroom as his dominance on the golf course, is arguably the most successful athlete-turned-businessman. His unyielding approach to both golf and life earned him the nickname, The Great White Shark. Created from a family passion and strengthened by determination, Greg Norman Estates, founded in 1996, is a collection of fine wines sourced from stunning wine regions in California, New Zealand, and Greg's homeland of Australia. The selected growing regions are appreciated for the incredible wines they produce and the personal influence they have had on the Norman family over Greg's many years professionally touring the world. A strong believer in the role of wine as part of an active, easygoing lifestyle, Greg's aim is to produce approachable yet bold wines to be enjoyed by family, fans and wine enthusiasts alike.
