A wonderful release with fruit sourced from the Adelaide Hills, the wine was 100% whole bunch and spent 15 days on skins before 8.5 months in old french oak. The nose is laden with beetroot, dark cherry and stem. The palate combines bright acidity and savoury notes alongside sour edged cherry and plum fruit. Oak inputs are subtle and do little more than add textural spice to finish.

A delicious wine now that will get even better as it fills out in time.
