With a few years of cellaring, this regal McLaren Vale Cabernet Sauvignon from Chapel Hill has grown even more poised and expressive. The wine still proudly reflects its sense of place, but time has brought added depth and harmony. The sweet core of McLaren Vale fruit is now more refined, with dark berries and cassis layered beneath soft, earthy undertones. The once-firm, dusty tannins have mellowed beautifully, giving the wine a smooth, structured finish. Stylish, balanced and impressively mature – a true showcase of McLaren Vale’s charm.

AROMA: Evoking notes of blackberry, ripe fig, and Arabic coffee. PALATE: It retains an unlikely softness given its serious long-term potential; its silky elegance is deceptive.

A pure Cabernet Franc, it expresses true varietal characteristics of red currant, red berry and leafy, bracken notes. The palate has a compact style with finely compressed tannins that create a smooth, almost polished texture. The enduring freshness, intensity and elegance of this wine are the defining characters.
