Description

(86/6/5/2/1% cabernet sauvignon/merlot/cabernet franc/petit verdot/malbec. Quite what a classy Yarra Valley cabernet-dominant blend is doing at this price is beyond me. It is elegant, medium bodied and finely structured, the suite of red/blackcurrant fruits given 12 months in French oak (20% new).
