DESCRIPTION

Previous releases have combined Shiraz (15%), Grenache Noir (44%), Cinsault (16%), Mataro (12%) and Carignan (13%) from vineyards on granite and shale-derived soils, using natural fermentation, gentle extraction and maturation in older French oak barrels, larger foudres and concrete eggs.

TASTING NOTES

Nose: Aromas of ripe cherries, cranberries and wild red berries, complemented by dried herbs, delicate floral notes and subtle peppery spice.

Palate: Medium-bodied with juicy red cherry, raspberry and bramble fruit flavours. Fine, silky tannins balance the fresh acidity, while savoury herbs and gentle spice add complexity.

Finish: Smooth and lingering, with red berry fruit, subtle earthy notes and a refreshing touch of spice.
