Description

One of the best Cabernet’s around -aromas of cassis, blueberry, cola, liquorice, and sweet oak. Ripe blackberry fruit, full-bodied, rich textures, exotic spice roasted coffee, and toasted oak aftertaste. Complex, long, sensuous finish.

"Aromas of blackcurrants, black tea, iodine, some plums and mushrooms, following through to a medium to full body, chewy yet polished tannins and a long, long finish. It builds on the palate. This needs at least two or three years to soften, but already a beauty. Really excellent." James Suckling, 94 Points.
