cinnamon, violets and delicate cedarwood. The palate shows
textured velvet tannins with a sweet mid palate weight. It leads
to an elegant, aromatic focus finish with length.

FOOD PAIRING SUGGESTION

This full-bodied wine will be an ideal partner to serious meat dishes.

WINE MAKING

The grapes were handpicked and transported to the cellar for processing. Whole berry fermentation commenced in a stainless-steel tank with twice daily pump-overs to ensure the delicate extraction of tannins. The total skin contact time was around 21 days before pressing. Malo-lactic fermentation followed 300L French oak barrels. 40% first fill French oak barrels were used. A barrel selection of only the best barrel were made for the final blend. Total barrel maturation period of 18 months.
