There is a mild element of licorice intertwined with coffee and plums in this wine. The elegant palate ticks all the I am from McLaren Vales boxes mixed with I am a product of the weather boxes which is really nice as Australia gets a bit of a bad wrap for being homogenised. There is a bit of alcohol warmth on the mid-palate but the flavour works really well together. While the length could be a bit longer for the money this is pretty good.
