Tasting Notes

Aroma

Aromatics that jump out of the glass. Pure fruited aromas of redcurrant and spicy plum.

Appearance

Beautifully intense purple colour.

Palate

Fresh acidity keeping the wine lively and vibrant. A slight rasp of powdery tannin with a herbal element provide a good palate length.

Vinification

The fruit was hand-picked early in the ripening period to make sure there was plenty of retained fresh acidity and crunchy fruit flavours. 25% of the fruit was kept as whole bunches with the balance of fruit being destemmed with whole berries fermented to dryness and pressed directly to 500L and 600L puncheons, all neutral French oak in origin. The wine remained in oak on full lees where it matured until bottling in August 2022. Unfined, unfiltered & vegan friendly.

Food Matching

Roasted capsicum with orecchiette pasta.

Winemakers Comments

Ready to drink now whilst it retains its youthful vibrancy but will drink well over the next 4-6 years.
