Deep, dark and inky in the glass, holding its five years of age really well. Big, brooding aromas of plum conserve, mulberry, sweet spice, mocha and vanilla. Powerful on the palate: there’s a drive of dark fruit and chocolate along with spice and anise. The flavours are rich, mouth-filling and invade the senses. The tannins and acidity are both up for the challenge and team with the opulent fruit admirably. Power and poise at play here.

65yo vines; aged 2 years in 50% new French oak hogsheads. Black fruits of all kinds, licorice straps and dark chocolate define Kym Teusner's bold flagship. The French oak influence lends savoury complexity and tannin dryness accentuated under cork, clipping brightness on a long finish. Warm alcohol closes a generous expression of a ripe vintage.
