WINEMAKING NOTES
The fruit was crushed and undertook a warm ferment separately, before it was pressed to tank and left on lees to settle for 3 months. It was then blended and transferred to seasoned new oak barrels, where it spent 6 months to mature.
TASTING NOTES
Vibrant, cherry red in color, this medium-bodied style of wine exudes cherry spice and savory aromatics with generous and supple low to medium tannins while remaining beautifully balanced. Expect aniseed, black licorice, and pepper characteristics on the palate and a delightfully lingering finish.
