Tannin is slaty, and feels almost feathery, a cranberried crunch and tang, then a finish that's clean and long, with a kiss of fruit sweetness to farewell. If you're looking for elegance, delicacy and restraint, then you'll be well pleased. "
The Wine Front, 2015
"Hand picked fruit is destemmed without crushing and elevated into small open fermenters. The must is left un-inoculated for 2-3 days. When fermentation is observed cultured yeast is added. Fermentation temperatures peak at around 32°c and during fermentation the cap is plunged up to 3 times per day. 2-3 days after fermentation is complete, the must is gently pressed and transferred into French Oak bariques (25% New, 75% second third and fourth use) where it undergoes MLF before winter. The wine is racked once in the spring and put back to barrels for further ageing. It is racked again in January for bottling in February, 10 months after harvest."
