Note di degustazione
Vineyard between Torbreck and Greenock Creek, shared with John Duval and picked two months earlier than The Descendant vineyard! Halliday rated it just below Grange! Mid to deep crimson. Very rich and juicy. Probably one of the less distinctive and most mainstream wines of the Ochota range. But certainly impressive and with great integrity. Sweet. Bit of liquorice and leather. (JR)

Dark purple. Ripe black and blue fruits on the nose and palate, with cracked pepper, allspice and violet notes adding lift and complexity. Smoky, sweet and broad on the palate, with excellent depth and focus. The sweet and smoky elements carry through the finish, with slow-building tannins and a jolt of cracked pepper. This wine was macerated on its skins for 60 days.
