Mike Bennie – The Wine Front
Big perfume of cedary wood, new leather, booze-soaked berries, bacon bone, very complex and rich aromas. Incredibly smooth, incredibly rich, so many layers to flavour in spice, fruit, wood, all quite nuanced, very serious, very seamless and exceptionally long. It’s an obvious wine, bold, forthright, but there’s so much to sink one’s teeth into here. Impressive.
Overview
Matured in new French oak barriques for 24 months. Impenetrable midnight black core with a very deep dark red black hue. Sailing out of the glass are intense blackberry and liquorice scents which mix with dark chocolate, vanillin oak, earth, mocha and light spice along the way. Full, rich and possessing a refined opulence, ripe blackberry and liquorice fruits run into some prominent toasty vanillin oak with elements of dark chocolate and spicy earth also evident. Excellent concentration with solidly built tannins providing a sturdy framework. High quality oak lingering onto the long aftertaste.
Cellar 6-8 years. / Alc. 14.5%

Buying At Auction?
Your Questions, Answered
What do you need from me to get started?
We will need you to confirm that you are over 18 (for obvious reasons!) and to open an account by registering on the site. This will include provision of credit card details for any eventual purchases. You will also need to sign that you have read the terms and conditions.
How many wines are in each Lot?
You will see the quantity (number of bottles) stated above the price. Please note that the bid-price is per bottle so you will need to multiply the price by the number of bottles in the lot to calculate the total price of the lot.
Can I cancel my bid if I change my mind?
All bids are final - please think before you confirm your bid.
How much is the Buyers' Commission?
We have an extremely competitive buyers' commission of 16.5% (GST inclusive). This will be added to the final winning price of your Lot at the end of the auction.
What are your freight charges?
Please see our Delivery Policy for full details relating to freight.
Is there a Guarantee on my wine?
Under Australian law, consumer guarantees do not apply to goods purchased at auction - all such purchases are at the risk of the Buyer. We will always provide as much detail as we can as to the visual condition and provenance of each Lot, however this is done so as a guide rather than as a guarantee.
