MORE INFORMATION:
Each vineyard block was harvested at optimal ripeness, and the grapes individually vinified. The hand-sorted fruit was fermented on the skins in a combination of submerged cap, roto, open and combi stainless-steel fermenters. Upon reaching the desired colour and tannin extraction levels, the wine was racked into a combination of first-fill 300-litre French and American oak barrels and matured for 28 months. After maturation the wine was racked, blended and bottled. COLOUR: Dark crimson. BOUQUET: Appealing aromas of soft black fruits and cedar spice. PALATE: Layered but well-integrated fruit and fine oak tannins. Gentle florality with elegance and harmony throughout. Supple and long. RESIDUAL SUGAR: 1.10 g/l ALCOHOL: 14.61 % TOTAL ACIDITY: 6.34 g/l Tartaric PH: 3.47

Excellent with red meat casseroles and stews, leg of lamb, roast beef, duck, robust chicken and pasta dishes, hearty soups and mature cheeses.
