Dark and intense. The wine opens with fresh cut red capsicum straight forward on the nose. Take a sip and immediately find roasted red capsicum, liquorice, fresh tomato leaves, and mouth coating black currant characters. Hints of savoury white and black pepper towards the back palate. A nice menthol and mint freshness. This is nice soft and more rounded expression of this wine. Firm and velvety tannins envelope the mouth, a little bit grippy. A long lingering finish. Exceptional Cabernet. This will age beautifully.

Small batches of grapes are gently crushed and then transferred to five tonne headed down open fermenters. These batches remain separate until final blending. Foot treading is undertaken two thirds of the way through fermentation. The wine is then basket pressed and transferred to old french oak barriques to complete fermentation. The barrel ferments are aged on lees, and there is no racking until final blending. This wine does not undertake fining or filtration prior to bottling.
