Medium bodied, menthol/eucalypt, mild spice, black fruited, fine tannin, good length. Feels a bit dilute compared to the 2014, and a lesser wine on the second night. Gary Walsh gave this 94 but I can’t quite see that.

Hardly any different to my note a year ago with a great array of aromatics despite its still youthful state; violets, bay leaf, mint, plum, black currant, dark chocolate, and cedar. Ripe tannins, acidity holding up well and good finish.

Depth, complexity and a palate weight that combine to provide an excellent Margaret River Cabernet

Black currant, blackberry, dark chocolate, gravel, fresh herbs, raspberry, dusty tannin. It grows on you subtly but definitely leaves an impression.
