Tasting Notes
With deep, complex aromas of blackberries and mulberries with meaty overtones this wine is rich and bright. The palate is sturdy and svelte with a pleasing balance of freshness and savoury bold tannins. Enjoyable now but will benefit from further ageing.
Winemaking Notes
Made from estate grown Durif vines that are 8 years old. The grapes were harvested on 20th February 2019 fermented in open vats, hand-plunged then pressed. The wine was matured in 470-liter, new (50%) and one-year old French oak barrels for 18 months. Prior to bottling it was fined with egg white. Alc. 13.3%, cellaring well for up to 12 years.
