"Elegant and sweetly fragrant, the bouquet shows raspberry, dark cherry, spice and toasted almond characters with a touch of savoury note. The palate is juicy and smooth, displaying delightful fruit flavours and intensity, leading to a lingering smooth finish. Well balanced and harmonious" Sam Kim, Wine Orbit
Lifted aromas of red plum, cocoa and liquorice. Palate is elegant and lingering with Summer berries, ripe plum, savoury black pepper and notes of toasty oak with delicate supple tannins.

The grapes were all hand harvested then 90% destemmed (10% left as whole bunch) before being cold soaked for 7 days to ensuremaximum flavour and colour extraction.

Post fermentmacerationwas for 7 days and free run wine was then transferred to French barrels (30% new) for ageing before a 100% malolactic fermentation in the Spring.
