From a pioneering dry-grown vineyard planted in the Heathcote region in '75. It's been given a good smack of quality French oak. It sets the style but also increases the wine's satiny smoothness. The crux is where oak meets fruit, and here's where the wine shines. A flood of red licorice, plum, clove and eucalypt oozes into smoky vanilla. It's a big oak-rich style but it will mature very well.
