Made for M&S by Paul Smith. Tim Knappstein Winery, from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon.


Terra Rossa soils. 35 year old spur-pruned, with no tillage/cultivation of the vineyard. The vines are naturally low yielding which helps to maintain a high concentration of flavours and to obtain a quality requiring minimal viticulture input.

– 100 stores.


Dark colour and showing some age. Very, very strong eucalyptus. This would be great for a blind tasting if you wanted everyone to guess it as Australian. The valley could be tricky as it’s atypical, but really a delicious aroma. Fresh and juicy with good balance. The 14.5% is completely hidden. Good, but not cheap.
