Beautiful garnet red colour showing barrel ageing to perfection, with a youthful appearance. Nose opens with chocolate and black currant, cassis liqueur and blueberry pie. The wine has a wonderful balance of power and elegance, with layers of chocolate and fresh red and black fruits. The finish is long and supple making this wine approachable now, but the acidity and tannin to go the distance and will reward with significant cellaring.
The grapes were destemmed and partially crushed, leaving some whole berries and pumped to open-top fermenters and stainless steel tanks for fermentation. For some blocks the estate use special cold tolerant yeast strains and ferment the wines quite cool (~10-11C), while others were allow to ferment naturally with no added yeast. These fermentations typically are warmer and are much less vigorous, leading to a long, slow (6-8 weeks long) gentle extraction of colour, tannin and flavour. The wines are then pressed and racked to 40% new French and Hungarian oak barrels for malolactic fermentation and ageing. The wines were racked to tank for blending in spring 2016, and then returned to barrel for a further eight months, for a total of 24 months of barrel ageing.
