COLOUR: Deep crimson/ferrous red. NOSE: Vibrant. Red earth/'Barossa dirt' regional cues not hindered by a 15-month sojourn in French oak. Initially, a lift of trademark tar/bitumen and subtle V.A....above scents of assorted carpaccio meats, steak tartare, green olive, capers, rosemary. PALATE: A firm and binding structure, medium-bodied. Focussed/defined, yet still generous. Mouth-watering acidity clutching opulent fruits renders on impressive pathway cleaved across front/middle/back palate..a pathway all ably assited by chalky tannins and absorbed integrated oak.
