Aromas of blackberries and blueberries with a note of fresh coriander. Layers of complexity unfolds on the palate with silky tannins. Exceptional balance, beautifully structured with hints of chocolate.
Delicate aromas of blackberry, blackcurrants, cedar wood and forest floor. Classically structured mouthfeel with a supple texture, complex layers and a focused linearity on the finish. A delicious partner with beef sirloin, parsnip puree, potato fondant and grape pomace jus.
Fermented in stainless steel tanks. Skin contact for 16 to 25 days resulted in excellent colour, concentration, aroma and flavour compounds.
The grapes were hand-picked from beginning February to end March 2017 with an average yield of 8 tons per hectare.
