Dense blackcurrant and cherry liqueur saturate the palate, the fruit's sweetness amplified by breathing time. Pipe tobacco and licorice weave through the core, while a mineral smokiness adds welcome savory depth. The tannins are already well-knit, the acid spine taut and energizing. This has the stuffing for serious aging. Floral notes and exotic spice hints suggest complexity will build. A complete Margaret River Cabernet that manages both power and poise.
