Description: COLOUR: Deep mulberry red
NOSE: An automatic ascent of cabernet sauvignon varietal fruits laced with classic Bin 707 barrel-ferment and formic markers. Scents of boysenberry ice-cream, black forest cake, dark black cherry/kirsch…and zabaglione, panna cotta notes hovering above. Contribution noted via the release of sandalwood, frankincese and whetstone sharpening block graphite aromatics. Vivid. Elemental. Beckoning.
PALATE: A solid cabernet core immediately apparent, with fruits to the fore (juicy blackcurrant) and a wrinkled, black olve concentration. Complexingly, a dark choclate graniness, cedar and a savoury disposition contribute to the layering, length and longevity potential of this wine.
