Still very tight but has that typical minty Coonawarra aspect to the palate. Once it opened up was a very enjoyable drop but I'd leave the next bottle for a few years yet.

Typical Coonawarra nose of cassis, mint with subtle chocolate and vanilla. Richly flavoured palate of cassis, plums, cedar and choc-mint with hints of vanilla oak and pencil shavings. Med plus body, fantastic length finishing dry with firm, but smooth, chalky tannins. Will wait for another 5 years to open the next bottle.

Lovely violet aromas. Good concentration to the sweet cabernet fruit and unusual raspberry flavour. Hmmm. 91-93?
