Aromatics of ripe blue to ark fruits with lifted musky florals and
cedary oak. Followed by a palate of spicy red to blue fruits with an
integrated cedary finish. Fine, intergrated tannins give the wine
structure, integrity and elegance.

2017. Fruit was destemmed without crushing, 20% remained as whole bunch
before transfer to open ferment. 1% Viognier. Held in 40% new French

95 Point Rated - James Halliday Australian Wine Companion
"48yo
vines, hand-picked, open-fermented with 20% whole bunch and 1% viognier,
10 days on skins, 16 months in French oak (30% new). Medium-bodied,
fully ripened fruit with plum and blackberry fruits, fine tannins and
neatly integrated oak, the finish long and convincing."
Nick Butler - The Real Review
"Fragrant
and poised. Cool-climate characters abound. Ripe fruit, tempered by
tannins and white pepper. Mid-palate shows sweetness, then tapers to
fresh acidity. Lots to like here."
