Fermentation and Winemaking Analysis
Gorgeous premium fruit, fermented in small open vats allowing greater air flow and circulation. Hand plunged.
Fantastic dry cold vintage, brought forward massive tannins and a full-bodied dry finish for this wine. We allowed further bottle aging to mellow these tannins and create a more subtle rich flavour. Prior to bottling the wine had 12-18 months in small French oak barrels, perfectly complimenting the rich tannins and developing cigar-box and peppery spice undertones.
