EXCEPTIONAL PARCEL RELEASE

Nose: Blackcurrants, dark plum, cassis, mocha, cedar, cigar box & subtle choc mint.

Palate:Well-balanced with rich black fruit characters, interweaving harmoniously with subtle coffee & chocolate. The wine has an understated authority, with layers of complexity building across the palate and finishing gracefully with long, fine tannins. It is a generous wine yet retains both poise & elegance.

Colour: At release, the wine is a deep, dark garnet colour with a subtle purple hue to the edge.

Vintage Condition: Growing conditions leading up to vintage 2012 were relatively mild, with regular spring rains promoting excellent vine canopy growth. Budburst was earlier than average, and this early start flowed through until harvest time 1 to 2 weeks earlier than in a typical year. Harvest conditions were excellent with only one substantial rain event occurring during harvest. Whilst it happened after most white varieties were picked, it had a positive effect on the red varieties, appearing to freshen them up, particularly the dry-grown blocks. Ideal ripening and flavour development conditions then persisted to the end of the harvesting period. Overall, whilst yields were lower than average, the winemakers reported quality to be outstanding with intense colour and excellent flavour development.

Cellaring Notes: Immediately approachable but will cellar well in ideal conditions for up to 20 years from vintage date.

Alcohol Volume: 14.0

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.
