Mayford 'Ovens Crossing' 2018
The 2018 vintage in Porepunkah was outstanding. Solid winter and spring rains heralded a cool start to summer, followed by a prolonged warm and dry autumn.
Opening with intrigue, in a style reminiscent of some of the great Italian wines that are highly structural yet beautifully perfumed – think Nebbiolo or perhaps Aglianico. The dark, tarry undertones are interlaced with fragrant, earthy aromatics; cigar box, chicory, red currant, musk and marzipan. Slowly as the lid opens, the great complexity of this wine becomes apparent. The palate is medium weight, but smooth and integrated with dark luscious fruits, spices and savoury tobacco leaf characters. It has length and liveliness with sinewy tannins that wire together the skeleton of this unique and delicious wine.
