The region's distinctive terra rossa soil, a strip of red earth over limestone, combined with a cool climate, creates ideal conditions for producing Cabernet Sauvignon wines with intense fruit flavors, fine tannins, and excellent aging potential. Beyond Cabernet, Coonawarra also produces high-quality Shiraz, Merlot, and Chardonnay.
