Dark ruby. Welcoming nose, provides curiosity for what lies under the cork. A blend of dark and red fruit, with notes of Chocolate throughout.

2014 vintage. Big on structure and drinks above its price point. Blackberry, currant, dusty black cherry, eucalyptus, dark cocoa, clove, cedar. Long finish and unmistakably Aussie. Elegant and ripe, but fine grained tannins.

Super elegant
Lost some fruit
But nice tertiary complexity
Cigar box, little incense, saffron, little liquorice, very fine, just whispered. Super smooth in the mouth
This wine is all about the tannin
Feel that, focus on that and you'll enjoy this wine wonderfully

Elegant, restrained, berry fruit, earthy, dusty, very faint herbal notes, soft tannic structure, drinks very well but has such impeccable balance I’m certain this will effortlessly age another 10-15 years, excellent!!

Chardonnay at it’s best. Mild in aroma, great in palette. No after taste, which is great.

Light to medium body. Not much of a scent. Strawberry, peppery, capsicum, cigar flavour and its light tannin
