Notes of succulent black fruit with a savory edge of cigar box and graphite on the palate , all held together beautifully with smooth tannins and a tightly knit structure. On the nose, crushed mulberry, blackberry, and plum flavors with well-judged oak maturation, adding layers of sweet spice, vanilla, and dark chocolate. Blend of 48% Shiraz, 13% Merlot, 11% Petit Verdot, 11% Cabernet Franc, 10% Malbec, and 7% Pinotage.
