The combination of traditional open-top fermentation and the maturity of the 100% Coonawarra estate vineyards give this wine terrific presence. It is matured in a combination of new and older French oak hogsheads for 18 months.

“This is a firm, well-structured cabernet with black olive, mint, peppercorn and blackcurrant flavours pushing throughout. It sits on the bold side of medium weight though the meaty dryness of the tannin helps with the impression of size. This will benefit from a few years rest in a cool, dark place.” 92 points, Campbell Mattinson, Halliday Wine Companion
