Tasting Notes
Appearance: Bright berry red colour
Bouquet and Palate: Fresh summer berries on the nose with hints of candy and an ellusive hint of oak. The crisp palate is supported by the acidity of the Sauvignon blanc ensuring a long, lingering aftertaste.

About The Harvest
All grapes were hand picked.
In The Cellar
All grapes were sorted before being crushed directly in to the tanks where skin contact is allowed for 4 hours. 6 - 15% of each variety were extracted and inoculated with pure yeast cultures to optimize fermentation at around 16 degrees celcius. The wine was allowed to naturally clarify under gravity prior to filtering and bottling.
