2019 Akubra
Dense ruby edges and a rich, perfumed nose layered with notes of black olive, graphite, dark cherry, baker’s chocolate and espresso bean. The palate offers nuanced concentration and savory core of seared beef. Seamless and persistent on the mouth with high tones of grilled plum, darjeeling tea, and vanilla bean, accented by the florality of lavender and sweet paprika. The breadth of the palate is expressive and vibrant with juicy edges and a lingering spice on the finish. Enjoy now or hold through 2038.
