Grape Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon 75%, Shiraz 20%, Petit Verdot 5% Region: Coonawarra Harvest: 10 - 23 March 2016 pH: 3.28 Acidity: 6.3g/L RS: <2.5g/L Alc/vol: 14.0% Oak Maturation: Select parcels of wine were matured for approximately four months in American oak barrels (19%), and older French oak (14%). Vintage: Coonawarra's 2016 vintage was an early one. An ideal growing season of slightly above average temperatures and dry conditions produced outstanding red fruit that expresses vibrant fruit flavours and strong varietal characters. Cellaring Potential: We suggest cellaring for up to 18 years. Food Matching: Roast beef with red wine jus, slow cooked Moroccan tagine or some aged cheddar. Colour: Dark plum. Nose: Vibrant forest berry fruits, mulberry and ripe plums with hints of spice and chocolate and vanillin oak notes. Palate: Richly layered dark berry fruit and oak. Black berry, mulberry and spiced plum, enhanced with vanillin oak and fine, lingering tannins.
Review: 94 points, James Halliday, Wine Companion 2019 Clever winemaking. The influence of the American oak was absorbed into the synergy already created by the two varieties, their flavours, and the tannins. A full- bodied wine made to feel deceptively light.
