Matured for 15 months in 9% new French oak barriques. A transparent wine with blackberries, briar and Davidson plum skin. There is a thicket of thyme and rosemary, it’s wild and adds pools of complexity – nigella seeds, black sesame and clove. The intensity of fruit lights up once again on the palate delivering bursts of mulberry and crimson berry juice. This transports you into the vineyard, the minimal use of new oak keeps the winemaking efforts far off in the distance. Totally divine. Drink now or in a decade’s time. This is calling for roasted pork loin and black pepper jus, to really show it off.
