Story: This unique wine comprised of classic Bordeaux varietals which is not often seen from Australia has a cult following in its home country. The wine is estate grown and aged in French oak barrels for 14 months. The cabernet creates the platform and base, petit verdot gives aromatics, structure and tannin, merlot the juiciness and cabernet franc is the funk%u2026 A Bordeaux blend with a difference!

Taste: A complex and powerful web of flavor. The front palate is all fruit mulberries and dark currants with hints of cassis and chocolate. The mid-palate begins to evolve with the combination of fruit, tannin and acid melding to deliver a powerful yet balanced wine with silky tannins. Buy one bottle to drink now and one to cellar for a couple years, this wine will only get better with age.
