Vintage -
The 2006 vintage will be remembered for the wamth that arrived in time to get fruit ripe. Patience was the key to good fruit balance and flavour development. The wine speaks for itself with the fineness and elegance it displays.

Appearance -
Clean bright deep red with purple rim at bottling

Aroma -
Complex dark cherry and plum aromas with hints of chocolate. Warm slightly earthy notes add secondary characters to the youthful nose. Nuances of oak vanillins will show when the wine is warm.

Palate -
A fine balance of fruit and oak tannins finish the abundant depth of fruit flavour. The concentration of flavours this year are very fine and warming.

Cellaring - -
5 to 7 years cool cellaring will make this a truly elegant wine.

Serving -
Best presented at 15 to 18C

Food Accompaniments -
Start with beef lamb or venison dishes then progress to pork and other game meat dishes as the wine ages.

Awards -

• Bronze medal in Cuisine Wine Tasting 2006
• Bronze medal at International Cool Climate Wine Awards in Melbourne 2006.
