The 2013 vintage was a very good one for reds in the Clare Valley. Warm days and cool nights promoted full fruit ripeness and flavour development whilst still retaining tremendous poise, natural acidity and tannin balance.

A Great Value Cabernet with excellent cellaring potential.

Matured for 16 months in new and seasoned French oak hogsheads the wine displays an opaque black purple colour with a dark purple hue. The nose offers up scents of blackcurrant intermixed with hints of black olive and bay leaf followed by cedar and spice. Full bodied the palate possesses both structure and richness delivering mouthfilling flavours of blackcurrant and subtle liquorice over some cedary tobacco characters and spice. Slightly dryish solidly built but fine grained tannins impart some chewiness on the finish. Long blackcurrant, cedary tobacco and spice aftertaste.
Cellar 5-6 years.
Alc 14%
