TASTING NOTES
APPEARANCE
Rich, deep burgundy red.
AROMA
Blackforrest cake esq with a hint of vanilla combined with rich dark fruits. Earth, blood plums, red licorice and spice complete the complex bouquet.
PALATE
A rich palate of mulberries, blackberries, and black cherries mingle seamlessly with velvety tannins, a touch of spice and iron-like minerality. The wine is medium-bodied, full, rich and flows across the palate well, finishing long and clean.
FOOD MATCHING
Wagyu steak with crispy oven roasted new potatoes, horseradish, mustard and seasonal veg.
VINIFICATION
The grapes for this wine came from a combination of vineyards. They were all kept separate during their fermentation and maturation lives. The machine-harvested volumes were crushed and destemmed into static fermenters and pumped over twice a day. After approximately 10 days of fermentation, during which time the temperature and acid levels were monitored, they were individually pressed to tank using an airbag press. The wine was racked off gross lees and put into barrel to mature in a combination of new French and older.
MATURATION
22% new French oak component with the remainder in older oak.
