‘Perfumed nose; caraway seeds, floral, sweet mint, blueberries and cassis, with spicy notes of Earl Grey tea, and Dutch liquorice. On the palate the wine is smooth and fresh with the earthy sweetness of roast capsicum, violets, licorice, Earl Grey, ocean kelp and the acidity of rhubarb. The dark lusciousness of black currants make the offering layered and complex; the 2021 finishes with lovely sweet notes as well as that typical cabernet tannin keeping the wine taut.’ – Brad Hickey
