Dark colour, light rim. Lovely florals, ripe fruit, a little spice and some lightly developed characters. Cherry pip spice, dark cherry, very pure long clean flavours. Only a bare hint of developed fruit characters, a hint of earth, really in the background only. Some well integrated nuttiness from oak. Drinks very well now.

Medium dark colour with a distinct tawny hue. Black cherry, plums, rich earthy spice, has a lovely rich warmth. Smooth and lingering fragrance. Smooth, light to medium weight with well balanced acidity and a fine long finish. Delicious black cherry and plum fruits, well rounded, plump, with a lovely dark spice undercurrent. Has a little of the new world big fruit style despite coming from Tasmania, granted a warmish site there. Also has some sweet cherry stone zest. Finishes very clean, quite supple. Worth keeping another 3-5 at least.

Typical Cherry/Plum aromas; well balanced, wish I had more.

Ripe berry aromas, lively at first but softens on the palate quickly.
