Deep crimson, red with a bight and vibrant red core. On the nose, vibrant notes of blueberry pie and short crust pastry, vanilla, white chocolate, white pepper and dried flowers. Classic McLaren Vale blue fruited accents, with blueberry and plum reduction. Quite high toned and vibrant, yet the palate is quite broad and loose knit, providing a soft and cuddly fruit expression. Tannins start early and ar also quite broad and loose knit, making the wine quite accessible in its youth. Oak is well woven in the wine providing notes of pie crust, vanilla bean & white chocolate. The palate tightens through the finish showing notes of white pepper and exotic spice. The palate runs very long creating a lovely mouth watering quality.
