Wild
raspberry and red cherry characters dominate while soft sweet brown
spice characters add in detail. Savoury red cherry notes lead the wine
onto the palate; the wine flows with good texture. Fine elegant tannins
rise out of the mid-palate and with wild raspberry notes drive the
finish alongside fine acidity.
A vintage of variability, contrasts and many different phases of weather
through the growing season. A normal to warm start to the season was
interrupted by a cold snap and snowfall mid-November. Weather over
flowering was patchy, but overall successful. An oddity during summer
this year was warmer nights and cooler days. There was a significant
amount of early season rainfall, right through to the end of January.
Cool and very dry conditions prevailed through February when verasion
occurs - slowing the phase of ripening down. The heat and regular
rainfall did reappear in March and then finally a very cool and lengthy
final ripening phase through April.
