The wine was produced from the Estate vineyard in Coldstream that has been planted to the Bests old clone. Having looked at the wines produced from this site over the last few years they continue to grow with vine age and understanding of site. The 2018 is a particularly good release.
A vibrant, medium red in colour with a nose that is floral and fruit driven initially, but builds with bracken and savoury nuance before a gentle weave of spice. The palate has weight and presence with dark plum and black cherry that is softened and accentuated by brighter red fruits. Vanillin spice works alongside tannins that are layered with pepper and charcuterie.
The length to finish is considerable with a tar and roses like aspect that lingers.
