Dark fruit intensity meets cool-climate finesse in this polished Adelaide Hills expression. Blackberry and violet aromatics lead to a palate showing excellent concentration and silky texture. Fine tannins provide structure without heaviness, while integrated French oak adds subtle complexity. The finish carries spice and mineral precision. Ready now but will reward cellaring through the mid-2010s.
