Tasting Notes
95pts 2020 Halliday Wine Companion "More than a passing glance over the shoulder of Bordeaux. Blackcurrant, bay leaf, olive, et al. all tumble around each other in the mouth, the well trained tannins not getting involved in the stoush. If you like voluptuous plummy, oaky cabernets, you won't understand this wine. If your tastes are more Catholic, you will."
