Description
"Evan and Tina Gobell’s Stonewell Road vineyard sits at 255m elevation on red loam over clay peppered with ironstone. It has a gentle westerly aspect and is pruned to grow low yielding, early ripening and intensely flavoured fruit." - Winemaker Notes
"When the conductor strikes up the orchestra for this big concerto, every instrument is perfectly in tune, and immediately strikes up the sweetest harmony. A brilliant mulberry colour also defies the tightly manicured fruit and flower aromas, pulled into line by sooty blackberry notes. The flavours promote a plush mouthfeel that defy the palate’s lean shape and taut structure. While the opening provides a generous embrace, its ironstone heart exerts influence to firmly constrain the back palate, aided by seamlessly integrated fine tannins and a lean acid line that carries a pristine final note, far into the distance." - 97 Points, David Sly, Decanter
