Pale garnet with a slight brick hue towards the rim, clear meniscus. Classic aged Hunter River Burgundy impressions, although look a bit deeper and there's a touch of mint and eucalypt announcing its Coonawarra component. Light bodied with red berries, earth and spices, sprightly acidity, touch of mint on the finish. Very pleasant.
