Rich Red Wines
Dense ruby-purple. Sweet nose of high class cigar tobacco intermixed with smoke, minerals, black currants, and vanilla. Dense, medium- to full-bodied, with superb richness, purity, and overall harmony.
Excellent with game, red meats and aged cheeses.
2015 Vintage Scores:
I love the meatiness to this wine, but also the purity of fruit; think charcuterie, prosciutto, bay leaf, capsicum, blueberries, blackcurrants and crushed stones. You just can’t get over the way this manages to deliver a powerful, muscular package with stunning finesse and poise. The tapestry of intricate texture and detail is wrought in a flashy but sincere and heartwarming style. The balance takes your breath away. Best ever from here. Impossible to resist now, but better from 2025.
