Written Notes

99 pts James Halliday, 99 points Tyson Stelzer

“Old vine fruit has tannins that melt in your mouth, like fucking Russian black caviar.”

51% Cabernet Sauvignon: Frankland River (Block 13, Justin’s), Coonawarra (Balnaves)

49% Shiraz: McLaren Vale

“2014 was spectacular.”  Elegant and medium bodied at best.  Finesse!  Tannins are cabernet dominant; structured with bright acidity.  Raspberry and blackcurrant on the nose, great length of flavour.  Black and inky without weight.  Lovely interplay between cabernet and shiraz.

Launch October 2018.  RRP ~ $250

A 2016 vintage was made, Frankland River fruit was used again.
