Tasting Notes

Aroma A generous dark fruit nose with lifted cabernet notes

Palate Varietal dark choc and mint on the tongue with an intensely fruited mid palette. Subtle oak and soft yet lingering tannins

Food Pairing

Moroccan spiced lamb is always out go-to with this wine. Try your taste buds with dark chocolate too, we're sure it will leave you salivating.

Smooth and sumptuous mid palate is a feature linked directly to the region.

Yet another example of just how good, and what brilliant value, reds from this most underrated of regions can be.

Taste profile

Primary flavors

Blueberry

While some wines smell remarkably blue, only a few wines taste distinctly of the actual blueberry fruit. Instead the flavor can often be found hiding in layers of taste, swirled amongst other fruits in a decidedly delicious blue concoction of floral sweetness and acidity.

Blackcurrant

Black currants have a strong, tart taste due to the high levels of tannins. These berries have strong, earthy tones. People describe the taste as grape-like flavor and are acidic to taste with hints of cherry.

Blackberry

Blackberry is a primary fruit aroma found in red wine and often tastes earthy and rustic, sometimes with a sweet edge.

Secondary flavors

Mint

The eucalyptus aroma in red wines has also been described as being spicy and mint-like. Eucalyptus is strongly associated with particular locations, such as Langhorne Creek Cabernet Sauvignon.

Bay Leaf

Bay leaf imparts a savory flavour - similarly to its effect on a traditional Spaghetti Bolognaise - the flavour of bay leaf in wine is herbaceous or reminiscent of green olive.
