Vibrant colour; a highly polished and pristine bouquet of cassis, cedar, a note of eucalypt and well handled oak; full-bodied, the palate delivers a long mineral and black fruit-driven experience, with fine-grained tannins and vibrant acidity providing definition on the long finish.

Glengyle is (accordingly to the fact sheet) an early ripening vineyard from a slightly elevated ridge in Coonawarra. Its a single vineyard release and a noticeable step up in quality. Good concentration here. Dense blackcurrant and cedarwood with mint and cloves adding lift. Serious wine but slurpable too. Fruit comes in a frame of tannin but the big picture is fruit, fruit and more fruit  with clovey oak woven throughout. This is a goodun.
