  • WinemakingGrapes were hand-picked mid-March and destemmed into small open vats for fermentation. Hand-plunged daily by the winemaking team for around 20 days before pressing and racking to French oak barrels, around 20% new and the rest 2-4 years old. Aged in oak for 20 months before each barrel was tasted and only the best selected for this premium Single Vineyard wine.
  • ColourVelvet rouge
  • BouquetPlump blackberries bursting to the touch, crisp wafer cigars oozing with vanilla crème fraiche and smashed raspberries. Hints of chai spices rising from a freshly poured tea cup. Luring you to take respite in a plush, garden view bay window seat.
  • PalateSuave like a tailored Italian suit with very shiny shoes. Rousing, powdery tannins like freshly fallen snow on your favourite slope, bright acid like the sun reflecting off the mountain. Fleshy fruit through the mid-palate with a long-lasting hold.
