Tasting Notes
Aroma
This wine has loads of blueberry and
black olive character on the nose.
Maturation
After 11 days
on skins the wine was pressed and put to medium and large
French oak for 11 months. The wine was blended and
bottled with no fining.
Appearance
Vibrant purple colour.
Palate
The whole bunch
component gives a dried herb character to the wine and adds
freshness to the palate. It is particularly generous in red and
dark fruit thanks to the warm and dry growing season of
2025.
Vinification
A small amount of whole bunch & fermented in both small &
medium sized open fermenters using wild yeast. A
combination of hand plunging and pump overs allowed for
gentle extraction of colour, flavour and tannins.
Cellaring Potential
Ready to drink now or cellar for 5-10 years.
Food Matching
Making it a great drink on its own, but can also pair
well with red meat dishes.
Region Notes
50% of this fruit comes off of G & H block here on our
Estate, that we have grown organically since 2013 and
biodynamically since 2017. The remaining 50% comes from
a single vineyard in Gomersal, on the western ridge of the
Barossa.
