Tasting notes:
Plums, cherries and sweet red fruits spring from the glass in an alluring perfume, supported by delicate hints of fresh mint and vanilla oak. Medium bodied yet balanced by prettiness, suppleness and salivating structure. Vibrant raspberries, cherry fruits and hints of fresh cranberry are complimented by savoury forest floor, earthy characters and delicate notes of vanillin from the beautiful French Oak.

In typical Stella style, this is a bright, lucid, textural and approachable Cab sprinkled with red and black fruit, mint, black pepper and dark chocolate. Somewhere between medium and full bodied, there's fleshy fruit, a briny savoriness, well-placed tannins and a fresh lift of acidity. Drinking deliciously now, it could also age until around 2032.
