Devil’s Cave Vineyard Heathcote Cabernet Sauvignon
Devils Cave Vineyard is a family owned business based in Heathcote, Victoria producing premium Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon wines. The ancient soils of Heathcote are said to be some 500 million years old which display some of the best characteristics for Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon vines.
The actual ‘Devil’s Cave’ is situated behind the vineyard on the McIvor range which lies adjacent to the township. The cave was once a place where Aborigines sheltered and was occupied as far back as 1864 by prospectors exploring the area for gold.
The philosophy is making wine by using minimal chemical input in the vineyard to maintain a healthy soil life, which also follows in the winemaking allowing the wine to speak it’s true sense of place. We believe that each wine is a true representative of the site, the variety and the vintage. Starting in 2012 making only a Shiraz wine and have since added a Cabernet Sauvignon a few years later.
