Maturation took place in new (60%) and second-fill French oak barriques for eighteen months, before final blending and bottling. Beautiful expression of Coonawarra Cabernet in a strong year. Powerful fruit drive and ripe Cabernet flavours with fine supportive chalky tannins. Regal and powerful, yet elegant structurally. A classic Coonawarra Cabernet from a strong vintage.
95 pts – James Halliday
There is more finesse with Parker wines of late. This beauty right up there with its atypical, pleasing aromas of blackberry and boysenberries, the sprinkle of spice, freshly rolled tobacco, dried mint and earth. The palate is very neatly contained, textured tannins balanced, and a long finish.
