This Yeringberg blend is what it is because, when it’s on song, it’s a wine of grace, completeness and elegant complexity, in which the bit players round out and add intrigue to the story being told by the main characters. Wonderful aromas of cassis, plum, violets, cigar box and clove dance effortlessly amongst notes of licorice, leather, tapenade and graphite – everything seamless, delicately rich and beautifully poised. The palate, fresh, savory and rounded, has an almost willowy elegance that gives a sense of lift and flow that belie the underlying depth of fruit and savory, superfine structure.

95 pts - Halliday Wine Companion: “A quintessential Bordeaux blend of cab, cab franc, petit verdot and merlot. Currant red and black. Mid-weighted and soused with bouquet garni, a swab of green olive and sage crusted tannins. A bit shins and elbows and unresolved at this point. The track record of this wine is such, however, that I have no doubt that the astringency will meld with patience.”
94 pts - James Suckling.com: “There’s a bold, juicy and foresty feel to this Bordeaux-inspired blend that has a wealth of summer-berry, bracken and leafy aromas. The palate is fresh, juicy and elegantly structured with good richness and freshness of blueberries and cassis.”
91 pts - Wine Spectator: "Eucalyptus, tobacco, black tea and cedar notes are dark and concentrated, with black licorice, spiced plum and dark chocolate notes that sing in harmony on the finish. Tannins are plush and velvety."
