Grapes were machine harvested and destemmed before being crushed. Fermentation was in a stainelss steel tank on skins with careful cap management to avoid over extraction. A period was spent in tank post ferment to aid integration of tannins. Wine underwent malolactic fermentation and was then matured in French oak for 16 months.
Food Pairing: An ideal partner for an antipasto platter featuring a range of salami and smoked meats, or any meaty casserole, like lamb shanks.
