Somm Note

Winemaker Notes

1998 Traditional shows a full, deep ruby colour.

The aroma is densely packed with ripe cassis-like fruit characters, underlaid by complex secondary notes of black olive and smoky hints of toasty American oak.

The palate is ripe but characteristically firm showing the generous tannin structure of Cabernet Sauvignon. The finish is long and complex, with the richness of primary fruit beginning to yield to the hints of wood-smoke and chocolate which characterise maturity and will develop further with time.

Alc/Vol: 13.8%
