In the winery: A percentage of whole bunches were left in wild-yeast ferments, and soft plunged to avoid over-extracting the tannins.
In the glass: Deep red purple.
On the nose: Perfumed mix of blackberry, plum, dark cherry and black tea.
On the palate: Red, black and blue fruit flavours with a touch of stalky spice adding complexity, vibrant acidity and subtle yet deep tannins driving the savoury finish.
