Sadie Family, Columella Vintage:2013 the wine blows me away

the wine blows me away with an unusual combination of power and elegance

the 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon / Shiraz The Caley offers expressive baked blackberries

the 2000 vintage delivered a precocious Dom Pérignon

this both caresses and stimulates the palate with a kaleidoscopically interactive array of those diverse and exotic elements that on the nose signaled its ripeness and botrytis ennoblement

Sadie Family, Columella Vintage:2013 the wine blows me awayThe 2017 Columella has an outgoing, intense bouquet, a mixture of red and black fruit mixed with sage, tobacco and thyme, that seems a little smudged initially but gains clarity with aeration. The palate is medium bodied with fine grained tannins, plenty of red berry fruit, a generous sprinkling of white pepper and a hint of fennel. Powerful yet refined, and very focused and harmonious on the finish. Gorgeous. Neal Martin
