A stunning Coonawarra cabernet whose deep, alluring perfume of cassis, mulberries, dark plums and cedary oak reveals a whiff of violets and dark chocolate. Medium to fullish in weight, it’s long and artfully constructed around a fine backbone of pliant, drying tannins. Unfolding layers of fruit, oak and texture, it’s sumptuous and spotlessly presented, delivering an exercise in charm and balance in a modern, plush expression of this classic variety.
