Notes
"If you were to plant a vineyard from scratch in Australia, with a view to tilting at windmills, then you might well plant it to Cabernet Franc and Merlot.
Gee, this is good. It’s floral and perfumed, blueberry and raspberry, nutmeg and cinnamon, a coffee grounds earthiness, black tea, with a pleasingly varietal dried herb edge. I may have mentioned a few beverages here that are good to drink, but this wine is also very good to drink. It’s firm in tannin, grainy and a little sooty, savoury yet fruit sweet, a crisp raspberry attack to acidity, with a finish of excellent length and brightness. Outstanding."
