Tasting Notes

Aroma

A restrained but sweetly ripe aroma; plummy and faintly jammy.

Appearance

Deep red/purple colour.

Palate

The resultant wine is highly fragrant and detailed with a super long and concentrated palate. It will reward extended cellaring.

Vinification

The pressings selection is a collection of the very last few litres of wine from the fermented grape skins when the press is nearing completion. These precious few litres are loaded with fine graphite-like, dry and firm tannins. The 'pressings' were transferred into 500L puncheons for malolactic fermentation. Racked twice during maturation, bottled February 2017.

Vintage Notes

The 2016 vintage was exceptional in Heathcote, with all the makings of our finest yet. One of our coldest winters in recent memory was followed by a warm and dry spring, with perfect, even set growth. The warm, dry and consistent conditions prevailed throughout summer, resulting in highly concentrated small berries.
