The wines from Ballast Stone are improving with each vintage, winemaker John Loxton has produced a totally opaque purple coloured wine. Perfumed nose of violets, plum, vanilla, spice and anise. The palate has an impressive weight with flavours of spicy oak integrated with plum, vanilla and liquorice. Fine, dry chalky tannins, overlaid by a violet infusion. Long aftertaste of plum and spice.
