Wine Summary Image

Wine Making

This is a wine of intense primary fruit character, the complexity and structure was built by carefully blending selected parcels of fruit. Selected parcels received a ‘cold maceration’ at the start of ferment to accentuate the fruit intensity on the palate, while others received extended skin contact to develop tannin structure. After fermentation, oak was used to add complexity and structure and to allow flavours to integrate and soften.

Vintage Conditions

Overall, the vintage was a dry season across the majority of regions we took fruit from. These dry conditions, coupled with warm weather and variable yield levels forced the growers to manage their blocks carefully, especially with regards to soil moisture and irrigation. Throughout the growing season, we saw a lot of movement in regards to ripening patterns and varying maturity levels across all varieties, with many of the red varieties all coming together at once, and almost everything on average ripening about 2 weeks earlier than in the previous season.
