Wine Profile
Tasting Notes
Deep crimson red. The nose reveals aromas of fragrant red cherry, raspberry and rose petal, with hints of spice and earth. Medium-bodied and silky, the palate is bright and expressive, showing fine tannins and vibrant acidity. A beautifully balanced wine with purity, and a lingering, spicy 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
This fruit was handpicked with 10% of whole bunches added to the ferment to enhance the complexity
and texture of the wine. After 9 days of fermentation the fruit was pressed with half remaining in stainless steel tank and the other half going to 2-4 year old French hogshead for 9 months of maturation. Careful selection and blending occurred just prior to bottling.
Food Pairing Notes
Asian slow-braised beef. Roasted pork belly polpette with polenta tomato sauce.
