Details
Deep ruby red in colour. An abundance of prune, blackcurrant and cherry aromas with oak spice and cigar box in the background. A rich and full-bodied wine with a good tannic structure, lots of berry fruit flavours such as blackcurrant and cherries with undertones of dark chocolate.
In the Cellar
Each vineyard block was vinified separately. The grapes were fermented at 25° C for 5 - 7 days. After malolactic fermentation, the wine was aged in a combination of new (30%) and second-fill (70%) oak barrels for a period of 18 months.
