Expert Reviews

93 points: James Halliday - Published on 27 Jul 2015

3-week fermentation, matured in French barriques for 14 months. Good hue, although not particularly deep; the deep fruit aromas and flavours are backed by typical cabernet tannins.

Winery Tasting Notes

Colour

Excellent depth of colour displaying a midnight black dark red core with a deep dark red black tinged hue

Aroma

Nosing reveals ripe blackcurrant, black olive and liquorice aromas intertwined with toasty cedary tobacco characters and spice

Palate

Bold flavours of rich blackcurrant and black cherry fill the palate with traces of liquorice also present over subtle cigar box, black olive and spice. A robust tannin structure provides the framework. Long rich aftertaste of ripe blackcurrant, subtle black cherries, liquorice, cigar box and spicy black olives. A full bodied blend with a solid core of rich fruit held in place by a robust structure.
