‘Sakura,’ the festival of cherry blossoms, is held in Cowra every year, celebrating the profound ties between their community and Japan – a connection rooted in history with its origins in the Prisoner of War Camp that housed Japanese P.O.W’s during WWII.

The Sakura label pays homage to this relationship and the iconic Japanese cherry blossom trees, which symbolise the delicate dance between life and death, impermanence and hope.

Just as the arrival of spring promises renewal and vitality, the blooming cherry blossoms serve as a poignant reminder of life’s fleeting nature, encouraging us to savour every moment. Carefully crafted from fruit grown in the Windowrie Homestead blocks, the Sakura range is the ideal companion to life’s celebratory moments.

Color: Deep ruby colour with red and purple hues.

Nose: Balanced aroma of red and blackcurrants, with hints of crushed herbs and cigar box oak spice.

Palate: The palate offers a moderate, flavoursome cabernet with balanced red currant, seamless fruit, tannin, and oak integration. A touch of tannins adds medium-bodied savoriness. Perfect for cabernet lovers, it hits all the right notes!

Pairings: Nonna’s eggplant parmigiana, generously topped with parmesan.
