VINEYARD & WINEMAKING
The 2022 winter saw above average amounts of rainfall that continued into early spring. Summer was dry and mild with even temperatures throughout February, March, April. These provided perfect conditions to achieve optimal ripeness and tannin profile in cabernet sauvignon.
The fruit was picked and sorted in late-April 2022. It was cold soaked in a small fermenter for two days before undergoing an extended and gentle maceration. Post-fermentation, the wine was left on skins for 14 days. Thirty percent of the wine was matured in new Bordeaux oak barriques. The balance went to one-year old (30%) and two-year old (40%) Bordeaux barriques for fourteen months.
THE WINE
This wine displays complex aromas of blueberry, plum and cassis, with gentle oak support. The wine is effortlessly mouth filling with juicy dark fruit flavours balanced with acidity and gentle fine-grained tannins which lead to a long finish.
