Strong nose of blackberry, graphite, and clove. Palate shows intense, sweet fruit flavours of blackberry, blackcurrant, root beer, and cinnamon. Oaky vanilla notes come through on the finish. Acid and tannin aren't particularly structured, but are intense enough to balance the fruit. This was nice to drink on its own, but last night's wine (a Merlot from Geelong) was a better match for dinner (Indian curry with lamb and tomato).
