The Hillinger Cabernet Sauvignon 2016 13% Vol. 9 l is a powerful and impressive Cabernet Sauvignon from Austria, vinified by the renowned Leo Hillinger winery. This Austrian red wine made from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon grows on brown earth soils, which give it structure, depth and a distinctive profile. The extraordinary 9-litre large bottle makes this wine an impressive highlight for special occasions, exclusive events or as an eye-catcher in sophisticated wine collections.


Vinification is carried out with great care and precision: a 5-day cold maceration is followed by around 4 weeks of maceration to extract the maximum flavours and structure from the grapes. The wine then matures for 16 months in new oak barrels, developing additional depth and complexity. With 13% alcohol by volume, lush tannins and a mild acidity structure, this Cabernet Sauvignon from Austria is a multi-layered, powerful red wine with great ageing potential and impressive expressiveness.
