Tasting Notes

Pepper and spice and all things nice in wine that continues to evolve as it explores new possibilities. It’s medium bodied with a mix of red and blue fruits. Inspired by the wines of the Northern Rhone and the use of different oaks of different formats, which contribute to the subtlety and poise on the palate. An elegant wine with fune bony tannins and tremendous length. A touch of sage, spice and pepper with darker blueberry and plummy fruit. There is an incredible intensity and vibrancy here showing great length. - 95pts, Ray Jordan

A wonderful dark purple colour. Floral and spicy with flashes of black pepper, dark plums and redcurrants. The palate is tightly coiled and there’s a nuttiness alongside the cedary oak, licorice and hot stone/iodine characters with an astringency throughout and raspy tannins in tow. Best to decant if opening now but this is still a baby, so more time in bottle is needed to allow it to grow up. - 93pts, Jane Faulkner for Halliday Wine Companion
