Description:
Youthful purple hues highlight a deep brick colour. Intense aromas of blackcurrant, plum liquorice and prune with underlying chocolate and mint. Hints of tobacco and black truffle are complemented by spicy notes of vanilla, cardomen and nutmeg derived from barrel maturation in French Oak.

The palate reflects the nose with vibrant plum, cassis, mulberry and underlying star anise. Displaying great length and packed with flavours, the mid palate is full and round with soft fruit flavours. Tannins are opulent with great length and abundance.

Extended careful cellaring for 10-15 years will see this wine develop in complexity, further enhancing the fruit, oak and tannin.

Grape Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec.

Gravely loam soils and 30-year-old vines produced fruit of intensity and power. Minimal handling of the wine in every aspect of its development has enhanced the fruit complexity.

Maturation for 20 months in 80% new and 20% 1 and 2 year old French oak was then followed by bottle maturation prior to release.

Background: Jack Mann was one of Australia's most innovative and passionate pioneer winemakers in Australia. A true sage of the Western Australian wine industry, he immersed himself in the single pursuit of producing some of Australia's great and remarkable wines at Houghton during his 51 consecutive vintages.

This wine was created to salute Jack's own achievements and represents an icon wine for Houghton.

The bottle is presented in a hinged lid wooden box on a bed of Cream coloured SizzlePak® with your message written on a gold gift tag.
