This wine was made by our co-Chairman and Hunter Valley Living Legend, Phil Ryan in conjunction with the team at the Hunter Valley’s Saddler’s Creek.
In the glass: Deep red purple.
On the nose: Lifted cassis, earth, mint, pepper and spicy, cedary oak.
On the palate: Huge and oak-driven showcasing rich, mouth-filling layers of cassis, plum and mulberry with notes of mint, crushed leaf and peppery spice. The mouthfeel is quite Rhone-like and rustic with smooth, well integrated tannins and savoury oak in support.
