Deep purple in colour and has wonderfully intense aromas of blackcurrant and ripe red berry fruits bursting from the glass. The intense characters are reflective of the warm 2008/2009 season with rich ripe jammy flavours dominating the palate, the stewed plums and rhubarb sweetness adding to the complexity.
The sublte influence of American and French oak adds new elements of spice and defines the tannins structure on the palate. The wine is typical of cabernet with firm tannins, good length and a complex finish; a great accompaniment to red meat and pasta dishes.
