Aromas of red fruits - strawberry,
raspberry, red currant, coupled with a floral and spicy
note.
Appearance
A bright crimson.
Palate
The palate has layers of fine grained and silky
tannins. It is intense and full, with layers of flavour and
texture leading to a long, lingering finish.
Vinification
The fruit was handpicked between 20th February – 4th
March, with each parcel handled separately in the winery.
Hand sorted and carefully de-stemmed, the whole berries
were then transferred to oak fermentation vats for
natural fermentation. A small portion (10%) of whole
bunches were used in 2024. Once fermentation was
complete, the wines were transferred to French 500L oak
barrels for maturation, 20% of which were new. The
wines were left undisturbed until estate bottling in late
January 2025.
Cellaring Potential
Cellar for at least five years, and preferably more than 10.
Vintage Notes
The 2024 season brought ‘La Niña’ weather conditions for the fourth year in a row – a fine and
early ripening vintage, with low yields and superb quality.
Winemakers Comments
Our philosophy is to craft single vineyard wines of great purity and character, reflective of our
site and the season in which it was grown. It’s the attention and care in the vineyard that is
most critical to allowing this expression.
