Tasting Notes
Appearance: Rich deep ruby colour.
This is an elegant, structured wine with berry fruit aromas and soft mint on the palate. A full-bodied wine with well-integrated oak, it has beautiful depth of character which will ensure successful ageing.
About The Harvest
The grapes were hand picked.
In The Cellar
Grapes were sorted twice before a pure yeast culture inoculated. The juice was pumped over the skins 3-5 times per day for 5 days. Once fermentation was complete, the wine was drained of the primary lees and transferred to a resting tank. Malolactic fermentation and a brief settling period preceded the wine to a combination of 225 litre barrels of French oak types. The wine spent between 12 and 14 months in barrel before bottling and labeling.
