Deep purple in colour with red rim. Cherries, strawberries and some savory spice notes. Fresh and vibrant there is intoxicating fresh cherry flavour with strawberries and more complexity is derived from spice and very subtle oak, the tannins are quite dry but only an on looker as the freshly cut fruit is the over whelming driving force. Served best with Roast pork herbs and fennel with apple sauce or mild blue cheese.
The fruit was hand picked and de-stemmed allowing for the retention of whole berries that were open fermented in small vats. The inclusion of whole bunches aided the development of structure and spice in the wine. Minimal maceration during fermentation, which enabled us to produce a more elegant wine style. The wine was matured in French barriqes for 9 months to add complexity and length.
