Nose
Juicy boysenberry, fresh blueberry, wild raspberry and
a ribbon of dark cocoa flavors complemented
by delicate hints of olive tapenade and freshly
cracked black pepper.
Palate
Breathe in the aromas
and sip to savor each of these flavors as they gain
focus on the palate. Beautifully textured, with
refined tannins and vibrant acidity reflective
of the vintage, the finish is long and generous.
Winemaking
Handpicked grapes were de-stemmed and then
traveled through an optical sorter to ensure
only the finest fruit was moved to stainless
steel tanks for primary fermentation. The
wine was then transferred to new, Taransaud
puncheons (600L) and allowed to mature
slowly and integrate the fruit and oak fully,
further developing the wine’s refined, complex
flavors and lush mouthfeel.
Appearance
Dark garnet, intensely colored.
