A masterclass of texture: plush, glossy, seamless ? abetted by silky, polished tannins. One taster quipped:
?millennial tannins?!
Black olive; coffee and mocha flavours abound, as do the generous shiraz fruits sourced from the northern viticultural
reaches of South Australia.
Medium-bodied, with a great core and lovely framework ? yet what is sipped fills the mouth so effortlessly.
A succulence is immediately noted ? a fruited pomegranate/cranberry/quince paste-induced acidity, balanced with fruit
sweetness.
