Winemaker Graeme MacDonald describes the wine as "Jumping from the glass with complex layers of high-toned red cherry, wild strawberries, rose petals and hints of dried herbs. Thirty-seven year old hillside vines add depth and concentration across the palate with fine noble tannins and a mouth-watering finish. A beautifully balanced wine expressing restraint, purity and a sense of place."
