Production: Crushed and fermented on skins for 14 days, pressed and racked to barrels. After full Malo-Lactic fermentation, the wine was further aged in new and one year old French oak for another 16 months, lightly filtered and bottled.

Colour: Deep garnet red

Nose: Black Cherry fruit aromas with light Pepper and Aniseed characters.

Palate: Very rich, full and generous cherry and plum and flavours that persist throughout with a soft and rounded ‘velvet’ tannin structure. Clean and long, with a soft, full bodied and generously flavoured finish.

Food: Serve with lamb or rich Mediterranean meat or tomato dishes.

Ageing: Can be enjoyed as a fresh young wine but has the potential to age to a richer wine with eight to ten years in the bottle.
