A bright wine with a red rim and a darker plum coloured core. Spicy red cherry and dark cherry combination with a smoky character derived from 15 months in oak. There are also hints of caramel from barrel maturation and pepper from the Shiraz component in the wine. As a young wine, the entry to the palate is soft yet fresh. In the mouth the wine expands to give a range of flavours from cherry and dark berries to a spice-like quality. The tannins are firm, but soft enough so as to complement the fruit weight. The wine has a sweet middle palate, but finishes dry.

Firm and chewy, with dark berry, cherry and mineral flavors, echoing enticingly on the refined finish. Shiraz, Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon.

The deep ruby/purple-colored 2001 JSM offers a dense, peppery, black cherry and currant-scented bouquet, medium to full body, and a chunky, monolithic but attractive personality.

Medium to full red-purple; solid, dark fruits and touches of dark chocolate and vanilla oak on the bouquet lead into a well-balanced, medium-bodied palate with sweet, chocolatey fruit and ripe tannins. Trophy and gold medal winner at the McLaren Vale Wine Show.
