Description
- French oak
- Cherry & blackberries
- Vanilla & subtle spice

Vibrant colour in the glass. Perfumed with violets, dark cherry and blackberries. Dark cherry, hints of spice and savoury notes, slight vanilla pod with silky, well integrated tannins.
Made from our two vineyards, Rapaura — river-run shingle, alluvial silts and Andahlane — stone, clay and silt (Pommard clone 5 adds structure). Small bunches resulted in low yields and the grapes were hand harvested after ripening early on the 4th March. De-stemmed and crushed into tank to soak before ferment. Wild yeasts initiated ferment with organic yeasts inoculated to ensure full fermentation. Racked and pressed off the skins and matured in French oak for twelve months. Racked off lees and matured for a further eleven months in neutral oak vats.
Food Pairing: Wild rabbit stew. Chargrilled aubergine and tahini. Good old-fashioned roast lamb, mint jelly and roast potatoes.
