It has a deep, vibrant colour and offers distinctive varietal characters, complemented by spicy oak nuances. A layered, well balanced palate structure and a persistent finish, provides a frame for the full bodied berry fruit flavours and touches of spice. After fermentation in small batch open top fermenters, the wine spent 18 months in carefully selected fine grain American oak. A proportion of new 30% American oak barriques were used to enhance its palate structure and flavour complexities without masking the varietal fruit characters.
