Coppermine Road runs parallel to the very best Cabernet vineyard in McLaren Vale, just metres from the winery, cellar door and restaurant. Planted to an almost extinct clone, this vineyard rarely yields greater than one tonne to the acre.
The 2012 is a wine of power and elegance, bright and fresh, but with depth and intensity and a very long tail of fruit and tannin. Fresh at heart but fully franked with flavour. Boysenberry, asphalt, blackcurrant and assorted green and dry herbs. Decanting or ageing should be considered a must.
