Vintage 2012

Lower-than-average yields in Australia, as across much of Europe. This was blamed on high winds, drought and low fruitfulness resulting from the poor 2011 vintage. Quality, however, was much better than in the exceptionally damp 2011, with South Australia avoiding some of the weather extremes experienced by other states. Strong varietal typicality is a commonly cited feature of the 2012 crop.

Written Notes

Initially quite muted, opens up sufficiently to reveal hints of fruit, a little floral lift and a touch of Marzipan. Entry is smooth, fairly glossy and a little oak showing itself. Well constructed wine, does well at its price point.

Pleasurable mouthfeel, a little blackcurrant pastille and gentle acid. Length is moderate, nicely textured. Shop around and you can find this below full tote. 89 - Good
