”Made from 20yo vines grown at Gladysdale in the Upper Yarra. Matured 10 months in French puncheons (20% new). An attractive and light bright cherry red. A little oaky at present, but once this settles down, there is more than enough stuffing in the way of red and black fruits together with some lifted, Asian spice notes. The palate flows nicely with mainly red fruits coming to the fore and fine yet persistent tannins round off a wine to consume now and over the next 3-4 years.”
