Cherry, Oak, Olive

Fruity aromas of red cherry and olive. On the palate, full bodied and complex showing layers of red plum and toasted oak. The structure is silky smooth with a warm nutty finish.

Each batch spends between four & five days soaking in the tank at a cool temperature ~ 10’c before it is prepared for fermentation.
