The colour is not very dark but is a very bright and deep, full purple/red. The bouquet speaks of violets and mixed berries; oak is barely evident. The tannins are very fine and the wine is subtle, elegant and beautifully balanced. Wonderful cedary complexity. Elegance personified. It's all about the purity of the fruit. A beautiful wine. (150 dozen made. Harvested on a full-moon fruit day, from the oldest vines on the Cullen vineyard. Fermented in wax-lined 300-litre terra cotta vessels. It spent 10 weeks on skins, and just 5 months in oak barrels, of which 2/3 were new.) 18 NOV 2017 Drink 2020–2045

Two-thirds whole berries/one-third crushed into 300l terracotta amphorae for wild fermentation, 10 weeks on skins before pressed to French oak (66% new) for 5 months. This is a truly beautiful and graceful cabernet. Its purity of varietal fruit expression, its perfect fruit/oak/tannin balance and its length are exceptional.
