Winemaking
For the base wine, the fruit was handpicked and destemmed directly to open fermenters. Fermented with indigenous yeast, the ferments were gently hand-plunged twice daily. The wine was then pressed off a few days after completion of primary ferment and matured in old French barriques for two years. Tiraged in June 2020, the wine was then allowed 29 months of maturation onlees before being disgorged in November 2022.
Tasting Note
Attractive bright garnet in colour with just the right amount of fizz. Aromas of ripe cherry andchocolate are interlaced with attractive savoury spice. The palate is generous, and packed with dense dark fruits. Balanced sweetness is paired with a mouth-filling creaminess owed to time spent on
lees.
