These vines enjoy a small amount of additional food and supplementary water to help maintain then on tough days. The vine is trained to a single wire trellis system with lift wires. Detailed spur pruning gives better bunch positioning and a limited number of grapes per year.

It's splendidly lifted on the nose showing blackcurrant, thyme, clove, vanilla and roasted nut characters. The palate delivers terrific fruit intensity and fine texture, wonderfully supported by richly smooth mouthfeel and fine chalky tannins. A wonderfully composed cabernet. At its best: now to 2033.
