Fresh mint and woodsy scents open the account with plentiful dark cherries and some Cherry Ripe appeal. Twenty-four months in French and American oak has certainly had an impact, imparting coconut husk and Gold Rough on a seductive palate. Dark plums get in deep with blackberry liqueur as eucalypt and a cheeky passata note build a neat savoury profile. It's a wine that possesses a cuddly warmth partnered by woodsy spices that linger long on a sustained finish. Beautiful stuff that only gets better the longer it sits.
