Deep red-purple colour leads into a strongly varietal cabernet nose of sweet berries, cassis and framboise, pristine and fresh, ripe yet aromatic, the palate showing the relative leanness and elegance of cabernet of this style, with fine-grained tannins that are measured and harmonious and not too assertive, helping to extend the very long finish. A svelte and refined cabernet. (McLaren Vale, Barossa Valley, Coonawarra, Padthaway, Wrattonbully)
