Drinking really well after an hour in the decanter. Oak stuck out a little before the hour breathing, however the fruit then rose up and it was all nicely balanced. Eden valley first, Cabernet second.
No rush, should continue to improve for 5+ years, however tannins are nicely integrated now.

Enticing nose of citrus, white flowers and green herbs, the palate carries some pineapple fruit sweetness and shows impeccable balance even as a young wine. Its grassy with a mineral backbone, yet also exhibits some viscosity. A true delight and absolute bargain at $25
