Colour
Deep brick red in colour with youthful crimson tints.
Nose
Classic McLaren Vale Shiraz aromas including mocha coffee, wild olive and liquorice dominate the nose, further elevated by the subtle nuances of toasty French oak.
Palate
The initially sublime characters of fresh coffee grounds, black cherries and smoky oak notes quickly build in the mouth and come together in a long, smooth and explosive finish. The synergy of the wines finely polished tannins round enough to enjoy this Reserve wine now, or put away for increased reward.
Background
Sourced from a single 43 year old vineyard planted in the foothills east of the McLaren Vale township. The wines dynamic structure, intensity of flavour and cellaring potential all hallmarks of the quality of the 2012 vintage, one of the most impressive for well over a decade. Traditional winemaking techniques, that included fermentation in a single open topped vessel, basket pressing, 20 months maturation in a combination of new and one year French oak hogsheads and bottling both unfined and unfiltered has further enhanced the wines strong character and pedigree.
