Scents of native mint and wild, untamed blackberries floating through the sun-scattered air, hearts are warmed as the sun fades with smokey notes of hot chocolate warmed on a small campfire.

Length yet opulent softness, the linear tannins run off the ridge into a bed of ripe, fleshy blood plums and stewed rhubarb and cocoa crumble.

At Jones Block harvested on two separate occasions to have the best of both worlds; lifted varietal characters and acidity in the earlier harvest matched with black fruit flavours and softer tannins from the later harvest. Thomas Block was the last to be harvested as it is Paxtons coolest vineyard in McLaren Vale. This vineyard adds some more spiced characters and a touch of elegance, all batches were separately fermented to be blended further down the track. A little new oak in puncheon form helps to digest the chewier tannins, the rest of the wine in a combination of used French oak puncheons and barriques of varying ages for 7 months.

Food Pairing: Slow cooked lamb korma with sweet potato

Alc/Vol: 13.7%
