Intense red with purple hues. Intense youthful fresh ripe berry fruit flavours with some well integrated oak. Full bodied dense ripe berry fruit flavours balanced with vanillin oak but yet long and smooth.

The grapes were picked between 13.5 to 14.0 Baume to produce the fruit flavours that are required to make this great wine. The grapes were fermented in a mixture of vessels to produce as much colour and flavor as possible. Portion of the wine underwent oak during fermentation and once dry, the remaining went to oak until the right balance was achieved. Careful tasting and blending, by our winemaker, help produce this wine of style and great value for money.

Food Pairing: Serve with red wine casserole or a juicy steak with red onion jam.
