Such beauty here, an assemblage of 17 individual parcels from the Estate vineyard. Cranberry and bright ripe red fruit, field mushroom, game too, roast quail, truffle, super indulgent. It sports a delicious umami broth backbone, the type that anchors and seasons. Metronomic balance with not a hair out of place and the palate bursting with fruit. Ripe red cherry, all parts dewy and plush. Middle Eastern spices keep pace through the velvety finish. Superbly done. Katrina Butler
