Dark in colour, this wine leads with an intense nose of plum, wine gums and violets complemented by pencil shavings. A portrayal of the dry, late vintage of 2018, this wine displays generous, lush fruit and amazing concentration, complemented by mixed peppercorn. Fruit-forward in a new-world style, the judicious oaking adds classicism. The wine lingers on fruit purity while smooth, velvety tannins add length.
