HARVEST
Grapes were selected from low yielding vines growing on the higher slopes of our estate on 24th March, 2023. Two cool climate clones comprising of R6WV28 and 2626 were combined to maximize the potential of the wine.

WINEMAKING
The bunches were destemmed and fermented with approximately 10% handpicked bunches. The fermentation was carried out over a 14-day period and held on skins post ferment for 5 days. After light pressing, the wine was racked to small French oak barrels and matured for approximately 10 months.

CHARACTER

Fruitful aromas of black currants, blackberries with a hint of white peppers. Approx. 10% of new French oak adds a hint of spice to the palate.
