Cellar Treatment

Grapes were destemmed and crushed to stainless steel fermenters where they had 2 days of skin contact before they were fermented. Ferment was pressed at 2°B after which fermentation was finished in tank.

Tasting notes

Upfront red fruit characteristics supported by subtle spicy tones, hints of white truffle, freshly made milo and thyme makes this a lovely Saturday afternoon drink.

Serve

Goes superbly with grilled steak or game.
