Nose
Concentrated earthy and herbal notes with upfront blackcurrants, black cherry and mulberry hints, juicy ripe plums combined with integrated fine toasty French oak, a very concentrated and complex bouquet.
Palate
Beautiful concentrated spicy fruit with tobacco cedar notes combined with ripe black- berries, the intense fruit from the nose follows through on the palate. Well structured even tannins are balanced with a fine acidity and rich earthy flavours, producing a very special wine of great complexity and length.
Background
South Australia's Limestone Coast is beginning to encroach on Coonawarra's uniqueness. There is no doubt that Coonawarra is this areas most renowned but coming from behind Padthaway, Wrattonbully, Robe and Mt Benson are all proving to be worthy contenders to the heavyweight title.
