"Crowd-pleasingly attractive, the wine shows lifted aromas of dark plum, spiced cherry, nutmeg, mushroom and floral on the nose, leading to a succulent palate that is silky and plump. It is juicy and flavoursome, offering excellent drinking" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Feb 2019

Dark blood red in colour with a expressive nose of ripe plums, dark berries and a hint of forest floor. The palate is fruit-driven with a core of supple red berry and cherry flavours highlighted by smoky spice complexity. Bright acidity and fine tannins provide definition to the long finish

Sourced mainly from low yielding vineyards near Mount Gambier in the east of the limestone coast wine region. The higher alitude aspect and cool evening temperatures combine to ensure the retention of natural acidity in the elegant fruit harvested whilst the long, slow ripening ensures excellent flavour development.

The winter of 2017 was very mild and without any rain at all until the month of June with soils replenished for the pending growing season. The mild conditions continued through Spring and Summer with very little rain but also without significant heat periods. The ripening was even throughout most of the South Australia delivering very high quality with bright fruit flavours and good natural acidity.

Partially hand before de-stemming and fermentation in a combination of two tonne open fermenters with ten percent whole bunch and twice daily hand plunging and larger closed fermenters with pump overs. All components blended post fermentation before three quarters were matured in stainless steel and one quarter was matured in French oak for four months before bottling with minimal fining, fifiltration and sulphur addition.
