Taste Description
Taste Description
Nose
Distinctive cabernet notes of bay leaf and blackberry leaf provide clear varietal markers. With a swirl, lifted aromatics of dark red cherries and mulberries jump from the glass. Behind the fruit, oak-derived notes of cooking spices emerge, including cardamom, allspice and vanilla bean pod.
Flavours and Palate
Blackberry and dark red cherry fruits follow onto the palate. An enticing, savoury profile. Cranberry and pomegranate succulence helps provide a sweet/sour dynamic. A combination of American and French oak offers a sweet char nuance. The oak doesn’t poke out or linger, rather sitting supportively with the fruit. The structural tannins are fine and grainy helping to drive the finish. The palate lingers from the delicious dense fruit and bracing tannins.

South Australia
Home to the oldest vines in the country, and no less than 18 wine growing regions, South Australia accounts for almost 50% of Australia’s wine production. The Barossa Valley, McLaren Vale, Langhorne Creek and Coonawarra are well known for their world class reds, with Adelaide Hills, Clare Valley and Eden Valley praised for their exceptional Chardonnay and Riesling.
