The wine displays Cabernet Sauvignon cassis and blackcurrant fruit on the nose as well as having a fresh minty, herbaceous ness backed by mocha vanilla. Firm structured tannins and a long finish on the palate show great ageing potential.
The vintage was a return to more average growing temperatures after plentiful rain in the winter season. The vines benefitted from the conditions and returned grapes that showed good balance of tannin and fruit flavours whilst maintaining fresh acidity. Definitely a vintage of note and worth cellaring. Ideal for classic dining situations.
