Tasting Notes
Aroma
Bright aromas
of fresh strawberries, cherries and red liquorice lift from
the glass, along with light notes of dried lavender and
blackcurrant.
Maturation
The wine was matured for 7 months before it was fined,
filtered, and bottled late 2025.
Appearance
Pale ruby colour with soft magenta hues.
Palate
The palate is vibrant and fruit-driven,
with an enlivening acidity, giving the berry and red
cherry flavours extra lift and freshness. It finishes with
gentle cocoa powder tannins.
Vinification
90% of the fruit was hand-harvested, carefully bunch
sorted and destemmed into a combination of fermentation
vessels, including stainless steel tanks and French oak
cuves. A mix of indigenous and selected yeasts guided
fermentation. The wine spent an average of 14 days
fermenting on skins before being pressed to French oak
barriques (15% new) and larger closed-top French vats.
Vintage Notes
The 2025 vintage began with a warm, dry spring,
encouraging early vine development and good fruit
set, resulting in higher yields. A cooler, more overcast
summer slowed ripening, preserving delicate aromatics.
