Includes 2.7% petit verdot, matured for 18 months in oak from (French) Taransaud, Berger and Sylvain coopers. Deeply coloured, this is classic Coonawarra cabernet with cassis, mulberry, mint and dried bay leaf coming together with fine, but firm, tannins to present an intense, earthy wine that doesn't even flick the needle of dead fruit/high alcohol. It thus has a certain austerity of the kind you once found in classed growth Bordeaux from good vintages such as '70.
