Description
Hand picked and destemmed only. Each parcel was fermented in open vessels and hand plunged throughout a moderate temperature fermentation. One parcel was left on skins after completion of fermentation for 12 weeks in order to lengthen tannins and add complexity. All parcels were settled for around 4 weeks in tank prior to barrelling down. The wine then spent 22 months in French Oak prior to blending and bottling in September 2021. Diam closure.
Blackberry, mulberry, dark chocolate and edges of black cherry. The focussed palate shows liquorice notes, gorgeous oak and black fruits, with fine tannins pulling a line from start to finish. There is a graphite component through the middle, together with a red gravel complexity, which conspire to add depth and density. Balance is key, with the natural acidity aiding the persistence and complimenting the depth we aspire to in our best wines.
