Bush-vine fruit from Frankland River. Matured in seasoned French oak for 9 months. Succulent yet tannic, this has brilliant length of flavour, confirming the multilayered approach of the palate. Raspberry, cassis, tobacco leaf, sage, pepper, jasmine tea and blueberries. Very impressive.

Boy, this is a super intense tempranillo loaded with plush, supple fruit. It's a variety that's well suited to the warmer climes and this one displays considerable structure with grainy tannins and a dab of oak, loads of red fruit and dark chocolate characters. The colour is deep and brilliant.
