Official tasting notes.
The nose starts with a hit of lanolin with layers of honeycomb, vanilla, burnt figs and hints of dark berries chasing behind.
The palate is bright and driven, with a dusting of baking spices, flourishes of banana bread and drops of candied walnuts.
The finish highlights the cask’s significant age, with a chewy and spicy tannic line that will leave you salivating.

This expression is the inaugural Shiraz release of Cut Hill’s Keystone series that was matured in a single, hand selected ex-shiraz cask from McLaren Vale showing all the hallmarks of this uniquely Australian style.
