Big, juicy, intense Coonawarra. Intense nose showing violets. Strong but pliable tannins. Delicious now but will improve over the long haul. (92 Very good wine)

A youthful medium red in colour, the nose has ripe blackcurrant character that is tempered by olive undertones and subtle oak integration.
The wine itself has wonderful poise, finding a balance between full bodied black fruits, dusty tannins and framing oak.
The finish has a superb mouthfeel with fine firm tannins that are rounded off with olive and blackcurrant. Review Link - www.winereviewer.com.au (drink from 2018-2025)

This was more like it. Intense Coonawarra elements present.

Didn't hit the heights of previous bottles but still enjoyed. Needs longer, 2-3 years perhaps.
