Tasting Notes
"Slurpy, soft, juicy. Jellied berries, currants, sweet spice, cola, cherry juice. Big, bulbous and round here with a dusting of spice and a whip crack of fresh, lemony-cranberry acidity that wraps things up quickly. Easy drink. Simple pleasure." - Mike Bennie

Scores
94 / 100"Estate fruit from Vine Vale and Pewsey Vale. Matured 14 months in French oak barriques. A proper cabernet merlot. Accurate, defined, vibrant and enduring. Signature, crunchy red/blackcurrants are lifted by wonderful rosehip fragrance, energised equally by confident, fine-grained tannin webbing as tangy, bright acidity. Cool-climate references are refreshing in this warm, dry Barossa season. Bravo!"
