This consistently rewarding red is estate-grown at a high-altitude site at Bendigo and barrel-aged, typically for about 17 months. The 2019 vintage (5*) is finely structured and very harmonious. Full-coloured, it is mouthfilling, with rich cherry, plum and spice flavours, and well-integrated oak adding complexity. Savoury and concentrated, it is likely to be long-lived, and well worth cellaring to 2024+.
