Nice tight floral, fruit (maybe blueberry) notes that have woody aspects in the nose- hints of vanilla. Thick garnet color, slight brown around edge (2014). Grassy, woody immediate flavor. Not unpleasant. I can taste this needs some aeration.

Dark red in colour, the nose is intense with aromas of mulberry, wild blackberry and liquorice combined with delicate smoky-coffee French oak. The palate is medium bodied with a soft round Merlot mouth- feel, black fruit flavours and a touch of dried herbs.
This wine will reward careful cellaring, and decant before drinking.56% cabernet sauvignon, 38% merlot 6% cabernet franc, matured in fine-grained French oak for 14 months.
