A wine produced from select parcels of fruit with partial whole bunch, wild yeast fermentation and aged in new (35%) and old French Oak.
A medium red in the colour with aromatics of plum, black cherry, pepper and top notes of milk chocolate. The palate has balance and power with a coolness to dark berry fruits that is wrapped in the spiced and chocolate influence of quality oak; tannins are firm and have a cherry pip like impact that works well with the full mouthfeel. A touch of charcuterie and iodine gives another layer of interest to the finish.
