Bright ruby red. Intense aromas of dark red berry fruits and ripe plum give way to complex violet and subtle spice notes. The wine has ripe berry fruit flavours. It is supple and textural in the mouth, and the fine persistent tannins lead to a long, and elegant finish.

Merlot 70 % Cabernet Franc 30%

Aromas of black and red fruit. Well-structured in the mouth with good volume. Very appealing overall.

Great with grilled sirloin steak, cold meats with garnish, frisée aux lardons, curly endive salad with bacon pieces.

This wine has intense aromas and flavours of ripe plums, cherries and vanilla. There are also hints of rich damson and mulberry. Full-bodied with a rich mouthfeel. 

This full bodied wine displays aromas of blackberry and black pepper supported by spicy, dark fruits on the palate with subtle integrated oak. The extensive finish is framed by elegant, fine grained tannins.  

The hand-picked grapes were destemmed, but not crushed, and spent seven days on skins in an open fermenter with twice daily hand-plunging and gentle pump-overs of the cap to extract colour, flavours and tannins. This was followed by careful basket pressing and maturation in a combination of American and French oak barrels for twenty two months prior to bottling. In keeping with our non-interventionist winemaking style we have neither fined nor filtered this wine and as a result decanting is recommended.
