Palate
Regal. Yet, without contradiction still youthful/bright/vivacious. A mirror-image of nose – an honest cross-over. Chewy tannins wrap around oak/acidity/extract inducing a substantial, velvety mouthfeel. Indeed, one that is sensitively indulged by its conveyance in 100% 1-y.o. oak. All the right ‘ingredients’ for longevity, replete with a ‘solid core’ – a generous/bountiful mid-palate. No rough edges, a continuum of just so many flavours that linger and ‘thicken up’ in glass. Demands time and patience. Early days. Yet again, not quite Cabernet, not quite Shiraz. Turbo-charged Coonawarra. Special.
