WINEMAKING
The fruits for this wine were machine harvested and fermented on skins for 7 days. After pressing, the wine is matured in a combination of oak planks, some of these being ex-whiskey barrels. The wine is lightly fined and filtered before bottling.
TASTING NOTE
Vibrant hue with dense red core in color. Strawberry leaf, blood plum, boysenberry & cherry notes with oregano and vanilla oak aromas. On the palate notes of dark chocolate appear with a full bodied and rich, yet subtle finish. The tannin are grippy, yet ripe and pleasing to drink balanced with the dark core of sweet fruit.
