Appearance: Deep crimson with a purple hue. Nose: Freshly picked blueberries, mint, white pepper and star anise are complemented with undertones of shredded tobacco leaf and subtle Asian spice. Palate: A wonderful varietal expression of McLaren Vale Cabernet Franc with juniper berries, sage and mint, supported with undertones of patchouli and subtle French oak. The texture is svelte and the soft tannin integration is seamlessly married with natural acids, leading to a pleasant savoury, lingering finish. Serving & Cellaring: Luscious and lively in its youth, this wine will continue to develop in complexity for 10 years. Store wine lying down at a constant temperature of 15-18 Degree Celsius. Decanting is recommended to open up the flavours and enhance the full appreciation of the wine.
