Generous rich aromas of black cherry, cassis, and plum. Subtle earth, spice and mocha undertones. Rich, full bodied mouth feel with great balance and lengthy smooth finish. Great cellaring potential.

Wine Profile
Vineyard Notes
After a fairly cool winter, the early wet spring of 2007 brought bud break a little ahead of schedule. The year continued with consistent warm dry weather through flowering. June, July and August were fairly nice and warm without any extreme temperatures. Although the year was a little milder than normal, the vines responded well yielding exceptional, intensely flavoured fruit.
