Vintage Description
The 2016 vintage began with well below-average winter rainfall, followed by a warm and dry spring. which enhanced flowering and set to give average to above-average yield potential. Low disease pressure was maintained by one of the hottest Decembers on record, though temperatures cooled down in the New Year and rainfall around veraison in late January brought relief to the dry-grown, old-vine Eden Valley vineyards. This was followed by further rainfall in early March which eased the stress on all varieties. The fruit matured with an earlier harvest, as predicted due to an early Easter. Open, light and airy vine canopies allowed for good flavour, sugar and colour and mature tannins to develop at harvest, which was overall characterised by average yields but very high quality.
Drinking Window: 2021-2060
Critic tasting note: "This is a rich, luxurious, fruit-driven vintage release, with oodles of cherry, blueberry and plum threaded with licorice, mint, mocha and flowers alsongside a cured meat underbelly. The palate offers wonderfully concentrated, satiny fruit cinched by powerful, sandpaper-textured tannins and buoyed by pitch-perfect acidity. It's showing a lick of polished oak but is crafted for the very long haul. Drink through 2050. Christina Pickard" - 97/100, Wine Enthusiast
