justerini & brooks tasting note

Cool and svelte black fruits – plum, blackberry, cherry and cassis – as well as liquorice, pencil shavings and coffee meld on the palate with a lovely heady floral note. The sapid finish is supremely long and impressive with wonderfully velvety tannins, allied with good powdery grip and an enduring persistence.

critic reviews

97/100Jane Anson,Inside Bordeaux

Power and precision in the flavours, a touch of tar, rosebuds, pink grapefruit, preserved citrus, star anise, just a ton of flavour and character and grip, it stretches out through the palate, peach pit, with energy and power. Just such a consistently great wine. Matthew Day winemaker, 90ha estate, 18 months in 50% new 500L Hungarian and French oak barrels, followed by 16 months in large oak casks, 168g/h residual sugar.
