It is a real joy when tasting to come across wines with added levels of nuance and sophistication. All the fruit and winemaking prowess is on show here but the true hallmark of this wine is the 35+ year old vines, which add complexity, depth and detail to the fruit which, when compared to a wine from vines that are much younger would simply be missing all those finer details. Older vines are heralded for producing higher quality wines, picture the vine as a wise, old sage that, through experience and practice from the same inputs can now produce wines with more layers and details. Those wise, old vines know what's up in the Yarra.
