This new 2023 was a big hit at our Moorooduc tasting in September and it is awesomely good! Deep garnet in colour with a nose redolent of juicy ripe red and black cherries, violets and just a hint of licorice. There is also something undefinably savoury yet lifted – perfumed wood – sandalwood or cedar? A tantalizing, complex and delicious nose. On the palate, more cherry fruit, with some savoury undertones and firm, velvety tannins. Juicy fruit balances perfectly with crunchy acid, firm tannins and a long, mouthwatering aftertaste. This wine is such a delicious, complex, balanced drink. Fabulous with duck, lamb, quail and the such like, works well with a touch of spice.
