Sample
Sourced from the Karridale Vineyard in Margaret River, with the wine aged in 2nd and 3rd use French oak for 15 months.
A youthful deep red with purple hues and a glossy nose of rich cherry and generous vanillin spice etched with milk chocolate. The palate is a continuation of the nose with flowing red cherry and plum fruit carried by a sheath of chocolate and spice; tannins are drying but fine and acid is well handled. Excellent length to finish, with grip of tannin and drying fruit. Set to have a long life ahead.
