Vibrant ruby violet colour., just such a pleasure to be taste, so much juice and character, concentration and confidence. Liqourice root, cocoa bean, cassis, bilberry, loganberry, fennel, baking spices, grilled coffee beans, freshly cut herbs, riven and powerful and wow is it good. Will Harlan director, David Cilli winemaker. 12ha estate set high above Oakville with slopes running from 150-340m. Long ageing in large sized Stockinger casks, minimal new oak.

“Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2021 Promontory swans out with gregarious scents of juicy blueberries, fresh blackcurrants, and kirsch leading to suggestions of candied violets, forest floor, black olives, and cardamom with a waft of wet slate. The medium to full-bodied palate shimmers with electric black and red berry layers, framed by very firm yet beautifully ripe tannins and impactful tension, finishing long and minerally.”
100/100 Lisa Perrotti-Brown
Dark, sensuous, beguiling, a very seductive Napa. Sumptuous, and quite opulent with that lovely counterpoint between the graphite and the black cherry that I now so closely associate with Promontory. Cool and composed, intense, dense, compact and spherical in form. Another wine that is so profound that it feels like there’s a black hole at its core, drawing all towards it. Peony and red rose petals. Pure, refined, elegant and supremely harmonious. Cashmere in a glass. Stylish and suave, with a lovely hint of incense. Long and fluid and sinuous. Needs a decade or so really to be at its best but with so much potential.
