Tasting notes:
Blend of Cabernet Franc 74%, Cabernet Sauvignon 11% and Merlot 15%. The colour is dark red, dense showing youthful purple hues. The bouquet is fragrant exhibiting flavours of ripe blackberries and violets. Hints of raisin and biscuity Christmas cake characters revealing a good harvest of a great season. The palate is soft and round presenting a delicious flavour composition. The well-accomplished varietal integration has created a fine wine. Ripe dark fruits of the forest framed by a subtle, velvety tannin structure have created a fine example of a great assemblage indicative of the Margaret River wine region. 13.6% alc. 12 Month in French oak barrels.
