Deep red colour with a tint of purple in the rim, the complex bouquet showing blueberry and violet, with a gunsmoke overtone. Rose petals, too. The palate is elegantly-structured and medium to full-bodied, with abundant soft ripe tannins and lingering harmony. A stylish wine that shows its merlot content as well as its cabernet base.

Very good colour and depth. The vintage was exemplary in the Yarra Valley, bringing both these varieties to perfect ripeness.
