Deep ruby in the glass with a cassis and anise dominated nose and blue fruits on the pallet.   A soft drying tannin structure and a great line of acid is well balanced with the use of fine French oak bringing some lovely cedar and spice notes.  This wine is powerful, aromatic and densely layered.

Reviews

17.5/20 points by Tamlyn Currin at JancisRobinson.com

"NHB. Unusually pale in colour for a Cab Sav. It also has an unusually delicate nose – very Cab: ripe capsicum, box leaf, cedar, cassis, but in soft-light diffusion. The palate has wonderful intensity of fruit, more dark red than dark, but, again, there is a striking finesse. The tannins slip across the wild-raspberry fruit like silk. Box-leaf and bay-leaf herbaceousness, serigraphed into the fruit. Tangible purity sounding flute-like on the long finish. I am very impressed." Tamlyn Currin, Jancisronbison.com
