Jasper Hill Shiraz/Cabernet Franc Emily'S Paddock Heathcote 2012

WineSaint
Inky and mineral-driven, with cassis, bitter cherry and violet pastille flowing across a firm, structured palate. The Cambrian greenstone terroir speaks clearly through piercing acidity and fine-grained tannins that provide backbone without sacrificing silky texture. Licorice and dark spice emerge on the lengthy finish. Built on structure rather than fruit sweetness - this demands patience.
