89/8/3% cabernet sauvignon/cabernet franc/petit verdot, matured for 15 months in French oak (20% new). Another beautiful, approachable and ready-now release from the Lifestyle range. Plump, supple and moving to floral, with fine structure and decent length. There's a little hint of crushed ant and gravel/ferrous on the nose that elevates the drinking experience here. Unmissable at the price.
