A typically muscular and profound McLaren Vale Cabernet but with certain elegance and breeding. The concentration and persistence of an amalgam of dark berries, blackcurrant and earth-like characteristics, intergrated with the understated oak and soft tannins, give the wine terrific balance and length of flavour with slight chocolaty and mint overtones. |
