Tasting
Produced from 20 + year old vines, the wine was vilified in small fermenters using a high proportion of whole bunch prior to maturation on lees in large format oak for 10 months prior to bottling.
The wine is a youthful red hue in the glass with plum and liquorice dominant on the nose, the palate has dark plum at its core with supporting tannins against flashes of oak induced spice. A slight leather aspect to finish alongside a touch of white pepper. Drinking well now, but is sure to reward time in the cellar.
