Tasting notes
28% Merlot, 70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 2% Cabernet Franc. Deep cherry red. Intense fragrant dark fruit with a touch of graphite. Sweetness of oak on the front palate gives way to firm, dense but elegant dark fruit. Touch of vanilla on the aftertaste. Finishes juicy and fresh. (JH)

An aromatic red, with lilac and warm cherry confiture notes giving way to flavors of crushed plum, blackberry coulis and roasted alder wood. Features good grip through the finish. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Drink now through 2020. 6,300 cases made. Mar 2013, www.winespectator.com
Currants and sweet strawberry aromas follow through to a full body, with fine tannins and a chocolate, berry and cherry aftertaste. Try after 2017. Feb 2013, www.jamessuckling.com
Pronounced red berry fruits, lots of Cabernet influence on the nose which is creamy and shows touches of vanilla and summer berry compote. Acidity gives length and elegance. An understated style that relies on balance rather than power. Jun 2015, www.decanter.com, Drink: 2014-2020
