Winemaking and Drinking
Brooding dark fruits fill the nose; think mulberry, and plum, complemented by licorice and subtle Middle Eastern spice. The palate is dense and powerful without being heavy and the medium-bodied framework is driven by silky creamy tannins and integrated French oak. A wine with excellent concentration and persistence, notes of toasty French oak add complexity to flavours of dark chocolate and stewed cherries. It's incredibly youthful and can be enjoyed now, but will handsomely reward those with the patience to put it away for a few years.
Perfect with slow roasted lamb shoulder, porcini risotto or kangaroo tail stew.
