Very attractive blueberry, bracken and red-plum aromas with cassis and violets. Some rose, red-cherry and fresh, earthy notes. The palate has an immaculately concentrated feel with measured shape and unwaveringly pure red-plum and blueberry flavors. The tannins are seamless, fine and vividly defined. Stunning length here. This vineyard was planted in 1879. Drink or hold. Screw cap.

Dating from 1879, the vineyard’s quality is amplified by the use of Stockinger wood (2550L), where it spent 14 months. This oscillates with the 8 Acres as my favourite of these single-vineyard expressions. An apotheosis of Hunter savouriness and a lightness of touch of yore. Truly ethereal. Fragrant, with mottled blue-fruit allusions, lilac, nori and chinotto. Clove, pepper grind and cardamom lace the finish. Yet frankly, words are a waste. The texture, the totem. Detailed tannins of immaculate precision. An airy grace. Elegance personified.
