Tasting notes:
Fragrances of currant, violets and forest floor tempt the nose while the mid-palate is jam-packed with cherry pie, bitter chocolate and ultra-fine tannins. The finish is well balanced integrating the ripe fruit with its plush tannins accented with traces of leather and cedar plank.
Winemaking notes:
The grapes were hand-harvested and fermented with native yeasts in stainless steel tanks.
