Ruby red with brick hue. Classic MR bayleaf, tobacco, cassis nose. Hints of mushroom. Palate is well integrated and fine. Bold fruit, attractive negroni bitterness, pan reduction meatiness and deep casssis. A great Margaret River wine.

Very good depth of colour, and a bouquet of raspberry, cassis, spice and violet aromas that just oozes class. The palate is intense and focused, tight and refined, with really stylish, fine tannins that run the entire length of the palate, finishing long and harmonious. Seriously good wine; powerful, and very regional Margaret River style.
