Grown ups Cabernet; great nose with blackcurrant, baking spices, lavender and vanilla. Violet colouring, dark but with a lighter rim. Taste is blackcurrant, dark fruits, espresso and spice, tannins are present but not too drying. Fruit is well layered but not overly sweet or extracted so I think this will develop for a few years yet. Plenty to enjoy here and some future potential for the patient ones.

One of my favorite wineries. Not a lot of fruit. A taste of leather, dark current and a smooth silky finish. @Chuck Newman u would love this one.
