This wine was made from the first vintage of cabernet grapes from our Meredith vineyard together with a smaller contribution from our longer-established Leopold vineyard. The colour is deep red tending to tawny, the nose is beautifully complex with notes of toffee, caramel and dusty, earthy characters. The palate is relatively austere without the domination by fruit flavour so common in Australian cabernets, but tannins and acid provide a lingering finish. It is a superb dinner wine as it fails to dominate the food flavours, but complements them beautifully.
