A structural shift in grape source for this vintage now with 20% sourced from the Rosehill vineyard as well as Old Hill and Old Paddock. Chatto said this adds a separate dimension of spice. Not as interesting as pre-Rosehill IMO. Doesn't have the Hunter DNA I think but the Mt Pleasant team are very happy with it. Another very good vintage in the Hunter.

Crushed stone and earthy. Liquorice, wild berries and raspberry and blue fruits. Silky and fine tannin and no harsh edges. Some wild flowers and quite elegant. Overall light and anit savoury and some bitter finish. Chalk and powdery. Hunter spice came out at the end.
