This wine is a fine example of McLaren Vale Cabernet Sauvignon. Hand harvested and matured in new and seasoned fine French oak barriques for 16 months. The wine has a deep ruby colour, intense plum/raspberry aromas and plush velvety tannins that build on the palate to give a very long finish. The stylish French oak adds subtle cedar and smoky notes that marry with the fruit flavours to create an appealing complexity in such a young wine.

Cellar for 10-20 years.

Ace of Trumps is a tribute to my family’s racehorse, which won the Adelaide cup in 1874.

“Ace of Trumps 2018 shows real depth and intent. There’s intensity, but also restraint dark berries, spice and a beautiful structure that holds everything together. It drinks beautifully now, but you can tell it will reward patience. A standout wine that lives up to its name.”
