A terrific follow up to the profound 2015, this is a pure, regal & pedigreed Cabernet Sauvignon. It shows a black core & crimson edge, offering a brightness to the densely ripe fruit. The decadence on the nose reminds of milk chocolate melted over baked blueberries, Morello cherries & cream. It is full in body with chalky tannins, imbued by rich texture & salty liquorice on the finish which delivers finesse & serious length. The palate is rather towering, deep & somewhat closed on release. It will drink well for a decade or more.
