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 2025. 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 2026. Clones - MV6 (40%), Abel (30%), 667 (5%) D4V2 (25%).
Cellaring Potential
Cellar for at least five years.
Vintage Notes
The 2025 season saw a welcomed return of warm and extended summer conditions, producing full flavoured wines with impeccable intensity and balance.
