Description
- Plum & berries
- Dark chocolate
- Warm & rustic

A core of rich plum and dark berry fruit with subtle lifted floral notes and complexities of dark chocolate that bring a sense of warmth and luxuriousness. Full bodied with good mid palate richness, and chunky, ripe tannins with a slight rustic edge.
The same grape variety grown in different sites in the same region or sub region, can demonstrate uniquely different characteristics related to those individual sites. Even if the grapes are grown by the same people, with the same care and attention, changes in soil, slope, altitude and shelter can subtly or dramatically alter the resulting wine, even over distances of a few hundred metres or less. Church Road One is a range of single vineyard wines that typify the character and personality of their best winegrowing sites.
Food Pairing: Well matched to a range of meat and game and robust vegetarian dishes. Particularly well suited to grilled meats which will pair beautifully with the firm, fine tannin.
