A truly exceptional single-block wine, cropped at low levels and grown on a 2Ha block called Rocky Knoll. These vines grow on a north and south-facing knoll where the Lochar soils are gravelly with a very thin layer of loose sandy loam. This naturally produces smaller berries and lower yields.

Complex and concentrated with notes of dense dark fruits, a distinct savouriness with hints of umami/soy character, and a charry spicy oak lift. A generous palate offers richness up front that is focussed and pulled into line by the lovely powdery tannins as a result of the warmer vintage. A wine of exceptional concentration, drive, and length.
