Tasting Notes

This Stone Axe shows a lush deep purple colour in the glass. Elegant aromas of black plums, blackcurrant and bramble are found in abundance. In addition, beautiful floral notes of violets and lavender are found alongside liquorice, caramel and a touch of smokey cedar. The palate shows a fuller body compared to previous vintages, with matching dark fruit characters. Additionally, baking spices, cloves and nutmeg add a savoury complexity to the wine. A juicy and lingering finish rounds off this beautiful wine that will mature spectacularly for another 13 – 15 years.
