Description To be honest, Halliday was only partly impressed when he tasted this wine: “Cabernet and 15% alcohol are born enemies, and no amount of magic will settle their differences, even where - as in this case - there are parts of the wine that are good…” Don’t worry – eight years on, it has settled and melded beautifully into a powerful, luscious and majestic wine. And here's what he said about the 2016: “Cast the high alcohol content from your mind, in the end it's a presence but the fruit is up for the dance. Indeed, the fruit is the star, a powerful, intense companion in this wine's journey which will be a long one…" It seems magic can happen!
