Tasting Notes: The aromas are layered with so many fruits they are too numerous to name here. The usual smooth and supple texture shares flavours of black cherry, every imaginable berry, olive and black pepper. Brightness and balancing tannin offer a long finish and significant age ability.
Winemaking: Fermented in 1 and 2 tonne open fermenters. Extended maceration was employed to enable good tannin development so the wine is soft and approachable early. Matured for 16 months in a mix of 40% new oak and 60% 2— 3 year old oak hogshead barrels (100% French).
