Grown in the Brancott Valley and at Rapaura, the powerful 2018 vintage (4.5*) was handled for five months in old oak barrels. Ripely scented and weighty, it has concentrated stone-fruit and spice flavours, gentle sweetness, fresh acidity, a slightly oily texture, and obvious potential for cellaring; open 2022+.
