This mid palate is finished off with an addition of 10% Merlot, and a combination of medium and high toast American and French oak, all of which builds layers of complexity and draws out the finish of the palate.
Grown on estate from our Langhorne Creek Vineyard which is situated off the heavy alluvial soils of the flood plains, on shallower terrra rossa soil, ideal for precision control over water use on the vines and known to provide more structural wines.
Cool nights have helped to retain varietal Cabernet character, while an extended hang time in the ripening season has built some mid-palate generosity.

90 Point Rated - Stuart Knox The Real Review
Deep and dense ruby red in the glass. Blackcurrant and damp earth aromas. Ripe black fruits, hints of green pepper and a firm mineral tannin framework. Good length and finishes bone dry.
Highly Rated - James Halliday Wine Companion
Machine harvested over 10 days into a single 14t fermenter with 8 days on skins. Strange, but the varietal fruit of bay leaf, mint and cassis withstands the use of American and Hungarian oak (plus 9% merlot). The tannins are well handled for a wine intended for immediate, casual consumption.
