Tasting Notes
Aroma
Lifted aromas of sour cherry and blueberries.
Appearance
Vibrant ruby red colour.
Palate
There is a faint hint of crushed rock and deli meats
on the nose that follows through to the palate – which is quite
frisky! It has plenty of lively fruit and refreshing acidity with a
supple, silky texture.
Vinification
Hand-picked from 415 Block on the 15th March, 2024. The final
wine is a mix of destemmed fruit (50%) and whole bunch ferment
(50%). Average time on skins was 10 days and the wines were all
pressed off into old oak for 10 months maturation. Blended in
January 2025 for bottling in February. The final wine is unfined
and unfiltered.
Vintage Notes
Mild winter in 2024 led to earlier than usual bud burst which
resulted in an early vintage. The season was cool and wet again
(just like 20, 21 & 23). The largest deluge of rain came in January
(180mm) which presented a massive challenge for the vineyard
team. Lots of hard work delivered the winery team a beautifully
clean and ripe crop. Vintage at Rising started on 23rd February
and finished on 15th March.
