Moonlight Cabernet Sauvignon 2019
Moonlight Cabernet Sauvignon 2019
Bullet scars in the walls of Old Borambola Homestead remind us of a visit by the notorious Irish-born Australian bushranger Captain Moonlite (Andrew George Scott). After his first release from goal, he turned his attentions on accruing enough ill-gotten wealth to flee the country for good. Captured by police in 1879, hanged in 1880, he never realised that dream.
