Tasting Notes

Vibrant red with a reddish purple hue. Fragrant and spicy with freshly picked strawberries and red currant fruits, hints of forest floor and sweet spice. Whole bunch notes just hover in the background. The palate is soft and juicy, vibrant and fresh with delicate silky tannins and a fine line of acidity holding it all in place. The red fruits and rose water cascade through the mouth interwoven and balanced. Fresh finishing and lip smacking. Divine.

Vineyard Notes

This wine was sourced from the north facing Willowlake Vineyard, sited in the red volcanic soils of Gladysdale.

Winemaker's Notes

A traditional winemaking approach was used to produce this wine – 90% whole berry fermentation with 10% whole bunch inclusion in open vessels for two weeks followed by a 10 month maturation in French oak barrels.

Vintage Notes

A warm, wet spring followed by a dry autumn period delivered good crops in near perfect harvesting conditions.
