Tasting Notes:
A blend of Mataro (67%), Grenache (27%) and Cinsault (6%). Aromatics of cinnamon quill, sandalwood and warm roasted chestnut notes over lay ripe raspberry and liquored cherry fruit. Dark, savoury fruits dominate on a mid-weight palate.
A perfumed, aromatically deep Barossa red displaying a bright core of red cherry, tart raspberry, plum and tamarillo framed by both high toned dried rose petal and violet florals, and hazlenut, mace and blonde tobacco spice elements.
A medium weight and focussed palate that builds in weight and intensity in the mouth. Spiced plum, rhubarb and cherry flavours on attack turn to darker fruits and savoury, fresh drying tannin and plum skin like acids. Whilst strong and intense, the overall balance leans to levity, transparency of flavour and freshness.
Each parcel was fermented with indigenous yeasts, and macerations varied from between 8 and 20 days. Maturation was in a combination of well-seasoned 600 and 1200 litre barrels and stainless steel. Only the Grenache component was fermented as whole clusters.
