Sample
The wine was produced from the Twin Crossings and Vine Vale Sands vineyards and saw 30% new French oak.
A deep glossy red in the glass, a generous brooding example of Barossa with dark plum and cherry fruit lifted by sweet oak derived spice. The palate gives expressive dark berry fruits and a suppleness of tannin that works with a gentle build of milk chocolate and spice. The wine carries its alcohol effortlessly with impressive palate weight and a subtle savoury twist amongst spice and driving plum fruits, with plenty of grip and dark chocolate influence to finish.
