"Deep aromatics of woody spices – sandalwood, cardamom, mace and pepper – fuse with deeper fresh leather, ink, char and dark chocolate notes.  Fruit aromatics are cool and dark – spiced black cherry and tart blackberry laced Asian basil and dried marjoram.

Medium to full bodied – at this point unevolved – spiced black cherry and sour dark plum fruits on attack turn to red plum and raspberry fruits, the flavours and feel of pomegranate cocoa build towards the finish – beneath the tannin the palate is quite open knit, wood and bunch tannins are yet to fully integrate and drive the palate to a tight, fine finish. Elegant, cool feel." - Spinifex

 

"Talk about nailing it. This slots straight into the realms of the glorious. It’s meaty, spicy, jammed with well-ripened fruit and just so well structured; so persistent. Plums and exotic spices, floral lifts, some undergrowth, some game. It feels filigreed; it feels certain. The complexity here, in a silken/seamless context, is right up there." - Campbell Mattinson, Wine Front
