| A deep core of blackberry and other bramble fruits is accompanied by dark earth, vanilla oak and a sprinkle of herbs within a savoury, meaty framework. Full-medium bodied, the palate is rich, deep and juicy with ripe, talc-like, supple, drying tannins controlling, expanding over the palate and harmoniously contrasting the sweet core of fruit and providing a very satisfying finish with lingering caramel and fruit tannins. This is textbook Cabernet with superb balance between sweet fruit, oak, savoury nuances and tannic structure. Drink now and anytime over the next 10 years. 92/100. Adair Durie |
