The elegant, supple 2009 vintage (4*) is a single-vineyard red, hand-picked and matured for over a year in French oak barriques (30 per cent new). A medium to full-bodied style with floral, plum and black-pepper aromas, it is full-coloured, with strongly varietal flavours and a finely textured, distinctly spicy finish.
