Dark purple red in colour. Classic cabernet nose of blackcurrant, redcurrants and subtle leaf nuance. Time reveals cedar and polished wood plus violet like florals.
The palate is medium bodied and savoury with blue and black fruits laced through fine emery-like tannins. The balanced acidity adds length, line and pleasing sense of refreshment that makes you return for more.
A traditional winemaking approach was used to produce this wine – fermentation on skins with twice daily pump-overs for three weeks followed by a 17 month maturation in 225 litre French oak barrels.
