Cellar: Drink now - 4 Years (2018-2022)
ABV: 14%
Closure: Stelvin

A blend of Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Opaque dark red black colour with a dark brick red hue, strangely looking a little advanced for it’s age. Lifted nose of slightly spicy dark plums, liquorice and blackcurrant morph into cedary tobacco characters, earth and dried herbs. Silky smooth, the medium to full bodied palate sports plushly textured flavours of dark plums, blackcurrant and liquorice over cedary tobacco characters, dried herbs and spice. Very polished, velvety tannins. Good length with a medium to long aftertaste.
Drink over the next 3-4 years.
Alc. 14%

Other Reviews....
There’s a distinctive overtone of black walnut here, adding a note of maturity and complexity to the core of wild strawberry and raspberry flavors, with aromatic details of dried porcino, green tea and spice box. The tannins are taut, firming on the finish and suggesting that time in the cellar will make this even more expressive. Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Drink now through 2035.
