Tasting notes

Colour:

Bright garnet.

Nose:

An immediate ascent of scent no need to wait or to vigorously swirl this wine to tease out what lies beneath! Dark berry fruits consistent to both varietal persuasions, (cabernet and shiraz), overtly courted by elements of ponzu, soy, sesame and dried shiitake mushroom.

Senses are easily conveyed to a forest after rain wet bracken, liberated mulch, damp soils. Naturally (new and used) oak plays a (minor) role in this fanciful aromatic romp.

Palate:

Flavours and textures akin to marbled Kobe beef and an earthy accompaniment of black liquorice root and anise. Structurally bold with little protruding integrated, fine and has comfortably already settled into place Appetising acidity a non-intrusive and refreshing granita-like bite/attaque. Assam tea maltiness and tannins merge with impressions of wet slate, pencil lead/graphite no doubt somehow linked to earlier partial barrel fermentation and oak maturation.
