56.4/43.1/0.7% cabernet sauvignon/ shiraz/other, from vines aged 20–120 yo. Matured 18 months in 18% new French oak hogsheads, then barrel selected. One of the most exciting modern additions to the extensive Grant Burge portfolio, a cracking rendition that epitomises the integrity and endurance of the great Australian blend in the Barossa. Impenetrable in depth and vibrant in hue, contrasting blackcurrant and blackberry fruit density and a crunch of vibrant energy. Super-fine, commanding tannins, great fruit drive and high-class French oak make for impressive potential

Very deep, bright red/purple colour, with a concentrated cassis, blackberry aroma, which hints at rather than shouts cabernet. The palate is deliciously fruit-sweet, the cassis), cabernet very evident, together with mouth-coating tannins. Earthy, mineral, graphite nuances. An emphatic finish and very long aftertaste. A statuesque wine with a big future. Cellaring recommended.
