A true icon of Coonawarra Cabernet. This release is right up there with the very best. Impeccably balanced and structured, with fruit entirely in harmony with the highest-quality oak. Regionally expressive with years, even decades ahead of it.

If there was less oak, this could have been a seriously good Coonawarra cabernet. As it is, it will appeal to many, with its cassis fruit girdled by cedar and cigar box flavours. Lots to enjoy with the right food (high-flavoured beef).
