Another exceptional vintage from the premium, southern grape growing regions of Western Australia. Winter rainfall was close to the long term average. The growing and ripening seasons, while largely warm and dry were punctuated with rains and windy conditions that did affect set and subsequent yields in many varieties. Warm, dry weather from late summer to mid-autumn delivered even ripening for the harvest. This mild end to the season allowed all varieties to ripen perfectly with high natural acidity, fine fruit structure and silky tannins.

Warm fruit notes of plum, black currant and mulberry with a perfumed lift of sweet mint, savoury herbs, mocha and spice.

Opulent fruit weight and supple fruit tannins deftly cradled by fine oak flavour and tannins. Mineral and chalky structure enhances the palate texture and length.

Dark and dense cherry.
