"92 POINTS. A fragrant blend of red fruits and plenty of spice; the palate displays a sweet core of bright red fruits, with a soft and generous conclusion; a well constructed blend." - James Halliday.

I could write some better points now I have tasted this wine on a few occasions and would add - "depth, structure and lingering mouthfilling tannins that keep you sucking your tongue well after the last drop vanishes."

It is a blend of cabernet franc (23%), merlot (21%), petit verdot (19%), malbec (17%), cabernet sauvignon (16%) and carmenère (4%). This virtually leaps out of the glass with its burst of black fruits. It has very good weight, depth of flavour and balance. The wine finishes long and will reward careful cellaring. Situated in a beautiful secluded valley north west of Watervale, the Olssen vineyard benefits from the shading effect of the steep valley sides, resulting in estate grown wines of great finesse and elegance.
