Blackberry, cedar and earthy nose with hints of mint and new leather. There is a touch of leafy herbaceousness from the cabernet as well. Full bodied, dry with violets, blackberry, spice and nutmeg flavours. Warm and rich palate with a powdery tannic finish. Classic Barossa Valley wine.

Vintage: 2016
Rating: Highly Recommended
RRP: $65
Ratings Key:
Outstanding (Score range 95-100)
Often an internationally recognised, leading brand or winery – but not always! Produces a classic wine that is a faultless representation of the style/variety. Complexity on the nose and a seamless palate are an example of the hallmarks of an outstanding wine.
Highly Recommended (Score range 92-94)
A quality focused wine that has plenty of style. Length of palate and intensity are often key characteristics of highly recommended wines. These producers could be the ones to watch in the future.
Recommended (Score range 89-91)
An above average well-made, reflection of the style/variety, which often represents good value for money.
