The nose is distinctively cooler climate Cabernet fruits. Cassis, gooseberries, fresh herbs, clove and a touch of floral nuance formed the first impression. The same purity of fruits and savoury notes are found on the palate. Rich, fresh and structured. The soft acidity cut through the palate, allowing the mouthfeel to be deep, intense but not heavy. May not be as mineral and powerful as the other Margaret River Cabernet, its clean and focused presentation of quality fruits and smoked spices on a medium-bodied structure is quite attractive. Finish just have some grippy and ripe tannins to remind people that it is still a young wine requiring more time in the bottle.

Improved considerably in the glass with time, producing a subtle Margaret River Cab Sav with lovely overtones.

Fruit dominated nose although not strongly typical of CS. Little fruit on the palate.
