Production
The Grenache, Shiraz and Mourvedre varieties were all hand harvested and fermented separately. To aid colour, tannin and flavour extraction the three parcels were cold soaked for a short period prior to fermentation. Post ferment the Grenache and Mourvedre vessels were left on skins for an additional 10 days before being pressed straight to seasoned oak hogsheads and puncheons for maturation. These parcels were then barrel matured for 12 months without racking on full press solids, then naturally clarified, blended and bottled.

Tasting notes
Bright crimson in colour and bursting with complex cherry, blood-plum and cinnamon spiced aromas. The palate is delicious, combining a blend of red-fruit and savoury flavours amid a rounded and fleshy core. The wine has excellent length and freshness which ensures approachability upon release but will mature well for the medium term.
