Wild yeast-open fermented, one batch kept on skins for extended maceration, matured for 18 months in French oak (40% new). The palate is medium to full-bodied with a wealth of blackcurrant, mulberry and cherry fruit. Oak is well and truly in play, as one might expect. The long, supple back-palate is very good.
HOW WAS IT MADE?
Contemporary Coonawarra at its finest. Powerful yet restrained, the combination of dark fruits, savoury notes and focused tannin results in a pure expression of cabernet sauvignon. A complex nose full of cassis, mulberry, violets and licorice and supporting French Oak. The palate is bold, generous and seductive, driven by a core of succulent fruit and savoury textural tannin providing superb length. This is a wine of incredible depth, complexity and finesse.
