2021 marks the 50th vintage of this wine. A blend of 86% Cabernet Sauvignon and 14% Malbec matured in French oak barriques (37% new) for a period of 17 months. Midnight black in colour with a dark red black tinged hue. Sailing out of the glass are intense red to black currant and mulberry scents followed by some vanillin cedar, tobacco, dried herb, black olive and spice notes. Rich blackcurrant, liquorice and mulberry fruits infused with black olives decorate the elegant medium bodied palate. Lending further nuance through the back half are notions of cigar box, bay leaf and spice. Sturdy fine grained tannin structure with a medium to long refined conclusion.
Drink over the next 6-8 years.
Alc. 14%
