Clare Valley, Australia

Blackcurrant and bitter chocolate pulse through a frame of fine-grained tannins. Game meat and tobacco emerge on the mid-palate, while bright acidity keeps everything taut. The finish snaps with cassis leaf and herbs. Still coiled tight after 25+ years. Needs another decade to unfold properly.
