Dense, dark fruits - plum & forest fruits, with lifted white pepper & anise spice.
Palate
Good fruit concentration dominated by a brambled fruit core and peppery spice, with sublime elegance. Juicy fresh acidity and gentle tannin profile. The palate finishes clean and fresh, with good length.
Background
The fruit was machine harvested and transported to the winery where it was destemmed and crushed into fermenters. Once inoculated, the ferments were pumped over and plunged twice a day, temperature was held around 25°C to prevent over extraction of tannins locked in the skins. The wine was then transferred to barrel for malolactic fermentation allowing a soft integration of the grape and oak tannins. After the correct amount of barrel maturation the wine was fined then bottled
