This is a wine that shows good structure and plenty of complexity with some Cabernet austerity. Black olives and black fruits show admirable concentration with very fine tannins and some serious length rounding out the package. This needs time and while it could be drunk now it will be much better given some time, which should allow a little more generosity to emerge. It is the polar opposite to the Merlot – drink that while waiting for this Cabernet to come into its own.

Australian Grenache is killing it and this is a wine that if it is not the best grenache ever crafted in McLaren Vale, if not Australia, then it is very close. 98 Points from Winepilot.com but forget the score - it is a stunningly beautiful expression of Australian Grenache.
