"Universally regarded as one of Coonawarra's greatest wines it continues to win trophies and medals throughout Australia and the world. The wine has a wonderful deep magenta colour with a rich nose, redolent of ripe plums, black berry and hints of dusty oak. The palate is true Coonawarra cabernet - very structured, with layers of black fruits. Very rich with fruitcake complexity. The lingering finish is very dry and overlaid with "fine grain" tannins. The wine was "barrel fermented" and then aged for about 22 months in French oak hogshead (300 litre barrels). It's a real winner!!
Of course, the predecessor, the 2005 vintage won some 10 or 11 Trophies to be one of the most decorated wines on the show circuit, with reason! Expect the 2006 to follow suit also, watch this space!
