Sample
Classic Margaret River aromatics on the nose of blackberry, violets and graphite with lifted cedar spice. There is a milk chocolate backdrop to the palate with piercing blackberry and mulberry fruit enveloped by supple and rounded tannins, graphite gives structure whilst blackberry fruit returns to dominate the mid palate. A touch of leather, coffee grinds and an embellishments of spice show themselves to finish.
