Lifted, lively and elegant, the nose is a myriad of red cherries, currants, boysenberries and plums. Cumin, dried sage and star anise combine with subtle savoury oak characters. The palate is lively and full of energy with balanced and bright acidity. Currants and red cherries are prominent throughout with hints of clove and mocha present on the mid palate. There is a mineral line towards the finish that meets gently structured talc-like tannins.

H10 Block Chardonnay is an isolated parcel selected from their Brokenback Vineyard and picked to minimise skin contact and preserve the fresh, delicate flavours of the variety. Fine acidity with fresh melon and peach characters laced with delicate oak complexity.

A lifted nose of dark berried fruit, forest undergrowth, oak and sweet spice. The palate begins with a burst of supple red berry and sweet cherry flavours balanced by bright acidity and nicely textured tannins. Beautifully balanced and flavoursome, is a very attractive Cotes du Rhone that will deliver relaxed drinking pleasure over the next five years.
