Other Notes

Some grapes for this wine were sourced from Block 9 planted in 1985 (nearly 40 years old). Dry grown vineyard.

Cellaring Potential

Will certainly reward 5-10 years in your cellar for those who can wait. If drinking now, decant for 1-2 hours for optimum enjoyment.

Enjoy With

Slow-roasted barbequed pork shoulder.
