Deep inky red in colour. Black currant mint and cedar are the prevailing characters with milk chocolate and pencil shavings common characters in high quality Cabernet Sauvignon from this region. The palate has black cherry and black currants providing the core whilst spearmint, spice and cedar add another layer of depth and complexity. Milk chocolate combines with finely grained tannins to provide a smooth ride and a touch of acid on this finish gives the wine a wonderful final kick.
The fruit was picked at optimum ripeness and transported to the winery and immediately crushed. Following on from this we fermented the juice on skins for 10-12 days to maximise colour and flavour extraction. The skins were then pressed gently and the pressings pumped back with the free-run juice. The wine was then fermented over a week then allowed to settle and was then racked off lees. The wine under went malolactic fermentation in barrel and then was aged in the same barrels for 12 months. The wine was blended and prepared for bottling with minimal filtration.

"Sweet nose of fruity aromatics. Palate showing great depth of sweet and savoury characters with a long flavoursome finish."

"Wonderfully ripe and varietally expressive, the wine shows blackcurrant, thyme, olive and toasted nut aromas on the nose, followed by a splendidly weighted palate offering refined texture backed by loads of polished tannins. Generous yet structured with a lengthy satisfying finish. At its best: now to 2035. $35.00. "
