Deep dark purple/black with red hue. Luscious aromas of ripe blackberry and concentrated cherry are highlighted by nuances plum, red liquorice and spice. The palate is youthfully opulent and potent, with rich dark plum, cherry, blackberry, whilst complexity is derived from aniseed, red liquorice and Chinese five spices building through the mid palate before the firm round tannins and a refreshing kick of acid explodes. This full-bodied Shiraz has a long lingering finish. Enhanced with wonderfully seamless integration of oak.
Fermented in small open top stainless steel, these fermenters ensure we maintain strong fruit flavor from skins. Hand plunged twice daily for seven days then transferred into American and French oak barrels for the remainder of ferment then spent 14 months to allow full flavour development. Drinking superbly now but for those patient enough to hold off this will develop beautifully for well over a decade years.
96 Point Rated - Australian Wine Showcase Magazine
"Fruit driven spicy, blackcurrant aromas. Plenty of sweet fruit on the palate, tasting of violets, blackcurrant, blackberry and cherries with wonderfully integrated oak. Has very nice complexity."
