Description
Essential Cabernet fruit aromas, a perfume of dark mulberries with a lift of bramble and toasty oak. A great heady aroma with rich red ripe fruits but also some hints of crushed violets and mushrooms, olives and herbs. The palate is powerful, dark, layered and textured.
"A classically structured Coonawarra cabernet, not relying on obvious fruit, but elegant and understated in a positive way. A very cedary bouquet, with variety, region, and probably oak contributing to the effect. Quite austere on the palate, some sweetness of fruit emerging as you hold it in the mouth, a touch earthy, then firm tannin following. Old school... 93pts" (Halliday).
