A tidy McLaren Vale Cabernet from 40 year old vines.
Aromas of choc mint spill from the glass and had me immediately sifting deeper. Cassis, cigar box, sandalwood, cloves and blackberries. There's some good depth here but the mid-palate seems a touch vacant. The concentration on the flanks can't be denied with a good fruit and acid balance. A wine which is still in its youth, it will reward cellaring.
Drink to ten years+
