“The finish is just exceptional – this lingers on the palate, forcing one to judge whether to cellar or drink” – Michael Palij MW

Youthful, pale purple hue. Pronounced nose with notes of wild strawberry, griottes, red currant, Turkish Delight, and cranberry. Elegant and perhaps more forceful, this shows apple skin, white pepper, red currant, red cherry, plum and clove. The finish is just exceptional – this lingers on the palate, forcing one to judge whether to cellar or drink. What a dilemma, and proof of Australia's huge potential and the increasingly confident hand of this winemaker. Drink 2028-2033 – MP
