Tasting Notes
Aroma
Generous aromas of ripe red and dark berry fruits, layered with warm spice, dried
herbs and subtle mocha notes.
Maturation
Matured in a combination of new French and Hungarian oak alongside older
seasoned oak, adding complexity and structure while allowing the generous fruit
character to remain at the forefront.
Appearance
Deep ruby red with vibrant crimson hues.
Palate
Full-bodied and richly flavoured, with luscious dark red berry fruit complemented
by mocha, dried herbs and savoury spice. Substantial chalky tannins provide
structure and are beautifully balanced by the generous fruit, leading to a long,
clean and persistent finish.
Vinification
Fruit was sourced from two growers along the Mount Camel Range, north
of Heathcote township. The grapes were crushed and destemmed into static
fermenters, with pump-overs carried out twice daily. Fermentation temperature
and acid levels were carefully monitored before the wine was pressed to tank using
an airbag press, racked off gross lees and transferred to barrel.
Vintage Notes
2025 was a warm to hot vintage in Heathcote, delivering beautifully ripe, sound
fruit with excellent concentration. The resulting wine is generous and full
flavoured, with abundant fruit balanced by firm, structured tannins and a long,
savoury finish.
Food Matching
Roast lamb with seasonal winter vegetables.
