Tasting Notes

Coral with a water white hue and turbid. Lovely aromatics. Red apples, pomegranate and alpine strawberry plus a touch of rose water/Turkish delight and spice. The palate is juicy and mouth filling. Red fruit to the fore with cherry pip textural crunch leading to a savoury, summer pudding like finish.

Winemaker's Notes

Destemmed to fermenter for natural fermentation. Fermenters were sealed and the wine was held on skins for a period of two months with no intervention. The must was then pressed directly to old French oak casks for settling for an additional two months before being racked and bottled without filtration. Only a small sulphur addition has been made to this wine.

Vintage Notes

A cool and long growing season with low crop levels and abundant rainfall has resulted in finely detailed wines of purity, length and complexity.
