Description: Handpicked fruit, initially processed as a whole bunch carbonic maceration to preserve vibrancy of fruit. After an 8 day cab mac, the fruit was destemmed and fermented the remaining sugars on full skins in open pots to build structure and presence. Pressing after a further 10 days, the wine rested over winter in seasoned oak casks, racked in early summer, post malolactic fermentation and bottled with a small sulphur addition.
A beautiful balance between fruit and acidity. The taste is unique with notes of vanilla, spicy black pepper and dark raspberry flavours.
