The outstanding 2021 vintage is up there as one of my
favourites. Sufficient winter rains revitalised the vines after
two consecutive dry, frost-affected and low-yielding years.
Spring was near perfect for budburst, flowering and fruit set,
enabling vines to flourish and reach their full potential.
Summer was gorgeous and mild with slow and even
ripening, fantastic colour and flavour development, and
acid retention. Finally, an unhurried harvest reduced
pressure on fermenter space, cellar hands, and my sanity! As
a result, we have captured the personality and quality of
every vineyard.
Colour: Medium depth crimson with purple hues.
Aroma: An alluring bouquet of red and blue fruits leap from
the glass with roasted, savoury notes and hints of black
olive, cedar, earthiness and white pepper.
Palate: A medium to full-bodied wine with juicy Satsuma
plum and raspberry fruits with plenty of velvety tannins
adding structure and texture to the wine. Sweet and briary
spices balance the juicy fruit with a subtle cedar note
carrying through the finish.
Cellaring: 2023-2038
Food match: Beef cheeks; Osso Buco; Fillet Mignon.
