Dark and intense Cabernet. This wine has personality – a loud and powerful aroma. Very fragrant with green and red capsicum, savoury spices, tomato leaves, blackcurrant and sage. The flavours follow suit, with red fruits, fresh cherries, capsicum, tomatoes and Asian spices. There’s some white and black pepper to be found towards the back palate. A long, lingering and persistent wine that sits with you for a long time. The exciting fine grain tannins have developed over time making for a wine that can be enjoyed now, but promises huge potential. Will cellar for 20 to 30 years, easily. A lovely wine on its own accord, but suggest pairing with a rich meat dish like lamb or steak.

Incredible fruit purity. Hints of violets. The aromas leap out of the glass. Papery tannin. A classical structure. Built for ageing.

Minty eucalypt bouquet with ripe blackberry. Big and rich, huge intensity and power, lots of very drying chalky tannins. Well-made, but slightly chunky with astringent tannins to the finish.

Pure cassis, blackcurrant pastille aromas with roasted chestnut and vanilla notes. Hint of bush garrigue. Polished and classic with pure cassis fruits, graphite cedar textures and mocha dark chocolate notes. Builds firm and tight – touch muscular at the finish. A modern claret style.
