Promised Land

Wine Colour
Dark red with purple hues.

Wine Bouquet
Lifted aromas of plum, red berries, licorice and a hint of chocolate. Subtle spice, cedar and vanilla characters from oak maturation add to the complexity of the bouquet.

Wine Palate
This is a medium-bodied wine with soft, round and gloriously fleshy palate. Delicious flavours of ripe plum, red berries abound with subtle licorice and chocolate evident. The finish is clean and long with soft, elegant tannins from the Cabernet Sauvignon.

Cellaring Notes
Ready for immediate enjoyment however with careful cellaring will develop further to 2010, possibly longer.

• Full Bottle NV

  Jane Faulkner, Sydney Morning Herald, August 2009

  Full Bottle
  This cassis to the fore and merlot berry fruit, plus it's bright and fresh - not overly sweet, with plenty of savoury nuances.

• Summer Entertaining NV

  Modern Home, October 2009

  Summer Entertaining
  Berries, plum, cassis, chocolate and a touch of liquorice make this a summer indulgence.

• Drink NV

  Ray Jordan, West Australian, December 2009

  Drink
  You get plenty for a modest investment in this wine. Warm ripe chunky fruit with a soft suppleness that makes for very appealing current drinking. Has deep blackcurrant and light minty characters with some dark chocolate infusion. Great value.
