Bouquet: Plum, salty plum, mulberry, violets, roses, dusted chocolate, cherry, wild thyme, iodine, ironstone
Food: Tasmanian ocean trout. Beef.
Palate: This wine was tasted over three days and opened up as the time went on. The first day was a leaf going into flower day, and the next two days both flower days. A flower day, Moon opposite Saturn harvest, tasted over the three flower days... how wonderful to experience! Initially on the first day it was shy and closed and then on the second day full flower day, opened its heart to the world revealing, delicious satsuma plum, dark chocolate, cherry, ironstone, caramel, and wild thyme. The palate sings with elegant character and depth of connection to country. Fine grained amphora tannins ,wrap around the front palate, and the fruit flavours fantail, out right to the back palate with a gust of energy that makes you want to try and taste and drink again to finish the glass and the bottle. An elegant sophisticated wine which captures the land and sky in a glass showing one of the greatest examples of cabernet sauvignon of its type in the world.
