– 12 Months In French (27% New) And American (8% New) Oak Hogsheads
– Deep, lively red
– Aromas of fragrant violet, lavender, blue fruits and the faintest waft of red apple blossom.
– Hints of bakery delights like pastry and rye bread crust, laced with thyme, oregano and pulped olive, new-buck leather and cedar
– yet any oak presence certainly respectful of fruit.
– Medium-bodied. Juicy redcurrant jelly, dark plum (and plum acidity), fresh rhubarb.
– Acidity is ‘Just right’ , Integrated tannins with polished-graphite and Seamlessly concealed oak. Melding well with fruit.
– Overall, cabernet balance and definition, sans exaggeration.
