More Information
Region Adelaide Hills
Colour At release the wine is a cherry red colour with a vibrant purple hue to the edges.
Nose There are dark cherry and kirsch characters along with subtle dried mint notes.
Palate This wine has fresh cherry and rhubarb characters along with red apple skin on the palate. The extremely gentle fruit handling has resulted in a wine that is both delicate in nature and also generous in flavour. A well-defined acid profile provides structure whilst the silky tannins provide beautiful texture. The high quality French oak holds court to the finish, which is lingering and extremely moreish.
Oak Maturation French oak was employed for its ability to deliver a degree of elegance and length to the palate. The wine was matured for 7 months in French oak before being blended, filtered and bottled.
Cellaring Notes Crafted for immediate enjoyment but will cellar over a short term under ideal conditions.
