Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Apr 2023

Description

  • French oak
  • Black Doris plum
  • Toasted spice
  • Silky-smooth

"Stylish and refined, the wine shows Black Doris plum, violet, dried herb, toasted spice and cedar characters, combined with rich and weighty palate that’s silky-smooth and fleshy. An abundance of polished tannins provide structure, finishing graceful and persistent. At its best: now to 2030" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Apr 2023

Handpicked from a selection of low yeilding plants from each of the 6 dijon clones. The grapes are cold soaked for 1 week before fermenting with the indigenous yeasts present on the skins and in the vineyard. After ferment the wines stay in contact with the grapes until the desired tannin profile has been reached. The wines are then pressed off into 35% New tight grained French barriques. After one year of ageing in the barrels the wines are gently fined using egg whites and bottled with no filtration or further fining. The Iliad Wines shows exceptional finesse and character and are destined for ageing.
