About this product
Tasting Evaluation
Colour: Dark purple core verging on black ink, with a ruby rim.
Aroma: Concentrated aromas of blueberry, blackcurrant and dark plum. Further layers of Asian spices, star anise, and dark chocolate add complexity.
Palate: Rich flavours of raspberry, dark plum and black cherry with savoury notes of bramble, dried herbs and black peppercorn. Fine-grain oak tannins envelope the fruit core, partnered with vibrant acidity, giving line and focus; drink now or savour over the coming decade.

Full bodied red wines have a noticeably textural mouthfeel with bold, complex flavours. Often deeply coloured.
Dry wines have no trace of sweetness at all.

Destemmed and crushed into open fermenters, manual pumpovers twice-daily, 20 months in 56% new French and American oak. A wine of energy, focus and length, with lovely spicy/savoury notes from the fruit and oak. Great balance from a respectful winemaking approach. Drink to 2043
