Tasting Notes
Aroma
Aromas of red currant and black cherries with hints of violets,
nutmeg and cloves.
Appearance
Bright red with magenta hues.
Palate
A soft yet powerful palate with intense flavours of red currants
and black berries. Fine tannins give the wine structure and
complexity.
Vinification
The fruit for this wine came from the Orange wine region in
New South Wales. The fruit was harvested and immediately
transported to our winery in the Hunter Valley where it was
crushed. Primary fermentation took place in 7 tonne stainless
steel fermenters with pump overs twice daily. The wine was
then pressed off to tank where malolactic fermentation was
allowed to finish. The wine was matured in French oak
puncheons for 10 months before being filtered and bottled.
Cellaring Potential
Enjoy now or cellar for 5 years.
Vintage Notes
The 2022 vintage began in the Hunter Valley with significant
late spring rainfall which then gave way to drier but cooler
than average weather through December and January. The re
sulting
long, cool ripening period allowed for the grapes to de
velop
complex and intense flavours, whilst maintaining
freshness and bright acidity.
