Cabernet Sauvignon leads a four-way blend with Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Shiraz, aged 18 months in 50% new French oak. Fresh fig, boysenberry and bayberry open things up, followed by rose bud and pomegranate molasses. Red fruit sits at the centre, wrapped in coffee and mocha spice. The palate is where it really shows its hand - tannins so silky they practically weave through the wine, length and dimension expanding well beyond what you’d expect from the first sip. It takes a special wine and some good time to build a texture like this. This isn’t a wine you taste and move on from. It sits with you.
