Wine Enthusiast – This is gracefully opulent and sophisticated with Black Doris plum, dark cherry, dried herb, toasted almond and subtle savoury notes on the nose. The palate is robust and substantial, while remaining gorgeously harmonious and elegant. Silky and plush within a sturdy frame, promising to evolve magnificently. At its best: now to 2038.

About This Wine
This incredibly fragrant and elegant wine is from our cooler site in Bannockburn in a warmer growing season resulting in a highly energetic wine with great flow and incredible layers of red and black fruit, baking spice and earth. The aromas are both intriguing and complex: fresh berry, lilac, baking spice and wild thyme. The palate is long and bright with cherry, raspberry, beautiful florals and cardamom. Silky fine tannins compliment the vibrant acidity, giving the wine length and memory. This wine is drinking beautifully at release and will continue to do so for at least a decade.
