From very low-yielding 132-year-old vines in the heart of McLaren Vale, this opens with winter warming spice, licorice and warm pavement notes that add layers to the blackberry and currant fruit. There's some milky coffee-like barrel influence here, too, but it's well-placed. The palate is tighter, more fruit driven than the nose, with powerful, raspy tannins. This could cellar another two decades.
