Deep inky aubergine, this Carmenere is brimming with rich aromas of blackcurrant compote, cocoa and smoky oak. The richness displayed on the nose is also displayed on the palate which is velvety smooth and intensely flavoured with dark cherry, blackcurrant and spice. An absolute treat for the senses.

The TW Carmenere is hand harvested to ensure the very best fruit is delivered to the winery. On arrival the fruit is gently destemmed and transferred to 3 tonne open fermenters where it is inoculated with red fruit enhancing yeast and adjusted slightly to ensure vibrant, stable colour. During ferment the cap is hand plunged three times daily to extract flavour and colour. Once dry, the wine is pressed from the skins and transferred to French, Hungarian and American oak barriques for Malolactic fermentation and ageing. After approximately 10 – 13 months, the barrels are blended before filtration and bottling. This wine should develop in the bottle if cellared correctly well over the next 5 - 10 years.

Food Pairing: Pair with any red meat you desire, game, or strongly flavoured cheese and pasta dishes.
