The end result deserves to make its own (fashionably late) entrance

Mills Reef Elspeth One 2020 Averna Winemaker Todd Stevens pursues complexThis superior wine, produced only in exceptional years, is a judicious fusion of Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Crafted from ultra premium grapes selected from the famed Gimblett Gravels. Full bodied, with a rich complexity of blackcurrant, brambly fruit, violets, cassis, and layers of chocolate, spicy oak and liquorice, all nestled on a bed of refined tannins. It's a distinguished silky smooth wine.
