Vegan Australia Certified
COLOUR
Deep ruby red with a solid crimson purple rim and slow tears on the swirl.
NOSE
Clean delicious aromas of blackcurrant, toasty nutmeg and a slight tobacco leaf and menthol edge.
PALATE
Wild berry aromas with cassis, dark cherry, nutmeg and roasted cocoa beans envelop a plush velvet tannin overlay and lingering toasty finish.
Clean layered medium bodied flavours of fleshy ripe blackcurrant and mint, with a background of sweet toast. Soft structured brittle tannins role throughout the palate towards a satisfyingly long finish.
WINEMAKING
The Organic Estate vineyard provides all the fruit for this wine. Large static,
as well as the traditional open top fermenters, were both used to ferment on
skins over a period of eight to ten days, with regular pump-overs and head
plunging for maximum extraction of fruit flavours, colour and the delicate
fruit tannins. The wine was then transferred into French oak hogsheads and barrel aged for 11 months.
FOOD PAIRING
Classic grilled beef burger topped with melted Gruyère, Asian BBQ lamb ribs or a mushroom stroganoff.
VINTAGE NOTES
Cool conditions in early spring enabled a subsequent long growing season. A warm dry summer subsided into ideal cooler autumn conditions prior to harvest.
Sam Kim, Wine Orbit - 93 points “Stylish and elegantly expressed, showing blackcurrant, subtle tobacco, clove, olive and toasted almond characters on the nose. It's succulent and finely flowing in the mouth, displaying good weight and fine, chalky tannins. Sturdy and persistent.” At its best: now to 2032.
