Bright ruby with a purple hue, this Cabernet opens with a lifted nose of violets, cassis and a hint of olive brine, with classic cigar box notes from restrained oak influence.

The palate is bright yet complex, sitting firmly in a medium-bodied, claret style, with flavours of dark berries, red liquorice and a subtle mint lift. Fine, integrated tannins provide structure without weight, leading to a long, composed finish. The structure leans on fresh acidity rather than assertive tannin, suggesting graceful ageing over the next decade, while remaining approachable in its youth.
