Deep ruby red with youthful crimson highlights, bright and clear in the glass.

👃 Aromas (Nose)

Expressive aromas of red cherry and ripe plum, layered with hints of five-spice, cedar and subtle oak that add complexity and warmth.

👅 Palate

Smooth and fruit-driven with flavours of dark cherry, plum and red berries, complemented by gentle spice and savoury notes. The palate is silky and rounded with appealing fruit intensity.

⚖️ Structure & Balance

Medium-bodied with soft tannins and balanced acidity, giving the wine a smooth and approachable structure.

✨ Finish

Dry and slightly tannic on the finish, with lingering dark fruit and spice notes.

🍇 Vintage Character

The 2013 vintage in Victoria was considered exceptional, with low rainfall and warm conditions allowing grapes to ripen beautifully and develop concentrated fruit flavours.

🍽 Food Pairing

🥩 Grilled steak or roast lamb
🍝 Pasta with rich tomato or meat sauces
🍄 Mushroom dishes
🧀 Mature cheddar or hard cheeses

Overall Style:
A smooth, fruit-forward Australian red showing ripe cherry and plum flavours with gentle spice and silky texture — approachable and easy-drinking while still offering good structure.
