I just love this wine. Brick ruby in colour, it is showing some development with a mellow bouquet with cooked fruits, vanilla and damson jam perfectly melded. On the palate, it is supple with a silky layered texture followed by bitter cherry and smoky notes on the finish. Persistent and very moreish. A very long season in San Javier meant grapes were harvested the last week of April in 2018. It is a blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Cabernet Franc and was matured in French oak barrels for 12 months.
