Double Gold Award - VINUS International Wine & Spirits Competition 2024

Colour

At release, the wine has a deep blood red colour to the centre with a youthful dark purple hue to the edges.

Nose
There are intense aromas of dark blackcurrant fruit along with subtle choc-mint and a hint of crushed violets.

Palate
On the palate, this is show-stopping wine with intense flavours of cassis and blackberry fruit along with violets and mint and attractive premium oak characters. Overall, the wine is well balanced with complex, well-integrated, elegant tannins providing structure and an intense, persistent length to the finish.

Oak Maturation
The wine was matured for up to 14 months in French oak barrels (10% new and remaining in 1 to 2 year old) followed by fining, minimal filtration and then bottling.

Cellaring Notes
Crafted for immediate enjoyment but will cellar over a long term under ideal conditions.
