From fruit in Leongatha, planted in 1996. The nose has an iron-oxide lift, and the palate tingles with a fine pepperiness that seems to accentuate ripeness but also red fruit. There is tension and an edge of mouthwatering, pithy bitter liquorice. The body is fluid, slender and refreshing with a sense of depth that is most appetising. This spent 14 months in 20% new barrels. Drinking Window: 2023 - 2040
