this is a hearty, lavishly styled blend of 54% cabernet sauvignon and 46% syrah by carl bowker, who pushes the purple-fruit aromas to the max, with deep blueberry, crème de cassis and violet flowers on the nose. the palate touches a wide range of dark fruits such as boysenberry, olallieberry and elderberry, picking up cola and root beer along the way. it finishes on coffee and a touch of elderflower, with an extremely soft texture.
