Tasting Notes

Aroma

Interesting aromas of dried herbs, fresh mint, clove, coffee, chocolate and sauteed plums.

Appearance

2022 Angels Share flows from the bottle with colours of magenta to black.

Palate

The rich and powerful fruits burst out of the gate, setting up the palate. This initial burst creates a wave of juice and long fruits which are slowly reined in by the broad tannins. this wine is a little bit too easy to drink, it announces itself and then gives you a whole hearted effort, the creaminess of the fruit holds the succulent mouthfeel and the tannins have a lovely brightness to the effortless finish.

Vinification

The fruit was crushed into and fermented in 5, 7 and 10 tonne open fermenters. During the peak of fermentation the batches received regular pump overs 2-3 times daily. The average time on skins was 15 days. Maturation occurred in 12% new French oak hogsheads for 14 months, the balance in 1 to 8 year old. After maturation the final blend was lightly fined and unfiltered prior to bottling.

Vintage Notes

After our second La Nia year in a row, the vineyards received an above-average winter rainfall, we then progressed into a very mild spring and an equally mild summer with only one day recorded over 40oC. Due to slightly later flowering, the vines were set up to mature at a slower than usual pace, which put the start of vintage back around 3 weeks on average, these mild ripening conditions allowed for slower than usual flavour development, which matched with lower yield across the board has resulted in another quality harvest.

    Youthful in the glass. Lifted aromas of dried herbs, pot-pourri, plum, blackberry and a woodsy lift. Fleshy, firm and mouth-filling on the palate. There's a drive of plum and mulberry along with cedary oak and a briary woodsiness. The tannins are structured and savoury and there's plenty of brightness and life on the finish. Points: 90/100
