Huon Hooke
Very deep, youthfully bright purple/red colour, the bouquet savoury, oak-tinged and coconutty, shouting American oak. The wine is full-bodied and firm, loaded with flavour and backed by a firm spine of tannins, some of which are oaky. Good depth, concentration and fleshiness: it just needs time.
