- Vintage 2004
- Vintage
“Every year I take delivery of three little pigs. Whilst pigs have the most charming personality, I find their contribution to our family’s famous Christmas hams of most interest.”
- Sight
- Intense and opaque crimson
- Smell
- Generous and verbose. Augumented aromatic profile. Perfume, flowers, cranberry, red currants. A backdrop of fine distinction. Cigar box, grilled capsicum, black pepper.
- Taste
- Suprisingly complex. Still punching above its weight. Cassis, menthol and eucalypt. Refreshingly clean, medium body with fantastic palate presence. Well balanced supple tannins.
- Time
- For immediate enjoyment and short term cellaring
