Fruit is sourced from a number of old vineyards in the Riverland and McLaren Vale regions, some of which are dry grown bush vines with wild ferments, whole bunch inclusion and larger oak all part of the vinification process.
Deep dark red core with black tinged edges and a dark red hue. Pronounced dark raspberry scents are interwoven with ripe cherry and liquorice which have a fresh herb overlay. Light earth and a whiff of pepper finish things off. Rich and succulent, the palate is drenched with dark raspberry, ripe cherry and liquorice fruits. Outstanding intensity and power with subtle vanillin cedar, light earth and spice characters lying underneath. Finishes with good freshness, velvet smooth tannins and a long juicy aftertaste that makes for extremely moreish drinking.
Drink over the next 3-4 years.
