Grapes were handpicked in small crates in late March/early April. Bunches were sorted before de-stemming, and the berries re-sorted prior to crushing, with the crusher positioned above the stainless steel tanks to allow gravity-feeding. Lengthy pump-overs and extended maceration ensured gentle extraction of ripe polyphenols. Varieties were matured separately in 50% new French oak for six months before blended together and aged for an additional nine months.
A deeep colored core gives way to a youthful ruby rim. Enticing aromas of oak spice and violets strike the nose. Vivid redcurrant and damson flavors, framed by supple tannins, and carried by a fine thread of acidity lead to a long, fresh and complex finish.
