- Ruby color with medium forming legs and aromas of blackberry, black currant, strawberry jam and cedar. It's balanced and has flavours of cherry with a full body. Bright texture with a long finish - As expected, a beautiful, well, balanced, well-made wine. Popped and poured, which was a mistake. Could have used about an hour in the decanter. However: an excellent wine and a crowdpleaser. Drink or hold for another five years. Wow!

Decanted over cocktails. This needed 90 minutes for the brett to blow off but it did. I'm not sure why brett sometimes goes away and sometimes just gets worse. Deep, fine-grained Grenache, palate filling and satisfying.
