COLOUR 
A deep purple 

AROMA
This starts with very typical Cabernet aromas of bay leaf, earth, aniseed, charcoal, lavendar and baked plums. This has a lovely perfume and it is very rewarding to just sit and smell the wine. 

PALATE 
The palate is regal and very mannered, starting out narrow along the palate. The flavours gently unfold onto a penetrating, yet soft finish which is held together by silky and long tannins. A fun drink now, these tannins have some life in them and this will age well. 

The many parcels making up this wine were crushed into and fermented in open top vessels, with regular pump overs 3 times daily to extract flavours, colour and tannins. The batches were then drained and pressed to tank and then racked to barrel for oak maturation.
