Wine Profile
Tasting Notes
Deep red with hints of purples. Showcasing aromas of cassis, blackcurrant,
and dried herbs, layered with cedar and dark
chocolate. A structured and refined wine, with firm
tannins, vibrant acidity, and a core of ripe
dark fruit. A complex, cellar-worthy wine
with a long, savoury finish.
Vineyard Notes
The 2024 vintage experienced favourable
growing conditions, contributing to
high-quality fruit with excellent balance and
depth. A cool, wet winter provided good soil
moisture, followed by a mild spring that
encouraged even budburst and flowering.
Summer remained moderate, with the
occasional warm spells but no extreme heat,
allowing gradual ripening and optimal flavour
development. Harvest conditions were ideal,
with dry weather ensuring clean, concentrated
fruit with balanced acidity and fine tannins.
Winemaker Notes
The fruit was fermented in a closed
fermenter for 7 days to allow for
maximum retention of the herbal, and
delicate blue fruit profile. To further
enhance these flavours, 15% of the wine
was matured in 100% new French Oak
with the balance in 2-4 year old
American Oak. This profile gives the
softness and elegance to the wine.
Food Pairing Notes
Rib eye steak, slow-cooked lamb shank.
