Energetic. Exuberant. Varietally pure – cassis/blackcurrant, at the physiologically riper end of the spectrum – no herbal or greener cues. Derived scents extolling memories of homemade cannoli – its pastry and custard/chocolate. Upon sitting, a suggestion of Chinese sausage.
French oak evident – clove, cedar, pencil shavings ... or American? Doesn’t matter – in harmony, in style. Full-bodied. Fresh, bright and lively. Defined. Focussed. Quince/miso paste, black olive varietal giveaways, intriguingly coupled with dark chocolate/praline/cocoa-powder – not standard. South Australian, South-East Cabernet fare. Solid, granular tannins, balanced acidity and friendly yet reserved oak, beckon an impressive structural conveyance.
