Description

  • Vanilla oak
  • Blueberry & plum
  • Milk chocolate & spice
  • Succulent finish

"It's fruit expressive and beautifully fragrant on the nose with dark plum, sweet raspberry, warm spice and roasted nut aromas. The palate delivers succulent fruit flavours with supple texture and plump mouthfeel, finishing lingering and silky. At its best: now to 2026" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, Oct 2023

"Like tumbling into a bramble bush on a hot day —hot ripe blackberries, raspberries, blueberries, accented with a whip of liquorice. On the palate, a jammy red and black fruit crumble. With ripe tannin texture and a rounded, persistent finish, this well-balanced sip is an affordably priced, guilt-free indulgence" Sammy Wilkinson, The Wine Writer, Dec 2023

Dark purple in colour with red hues. Fresh plums and subtle vanilla oak with hints of violets and floral aromas. The generous silky palate has blueberry and plum fruit flavours, complimented by soft, supple tannins with hints ok milk chocolate and warm spices. Bright fruit flavours linger during the long succulent finish.

Late Winter and Spring rains in 2020 allowed the canopies to flourish. This enabled the development of great aromatics and flavours to produce a deeply coloured wine with classic varietal characters.

Fermentation was carried out in a combination of static and rotary fermenters under warm temperature conditions for six to seven days. This creates a good balance between extracting the appropriate tannins for wine structure and retaining fruit drive and aromatics.
