TASTING NOTE
Luscious red/blue fruits in one corner, soft, savoury, earthy tannins in the opposite corner. A moreish and drink me now style, perfect with your favourite wood-fired pizza (hold the pineapple), charcuterie or fresh air – all too easy to drink.
VINEYARD & VITICULTURE
Syrah and Cabernet are grown in the sandy, clay soils of our Osmington family vineyard. Planted in 1998 with rows running north to south on a gentle northeast facing slope. Grenache grows on the family's Burnside vineyard, unique in its aspect, soil, and age - one of the great sites in the region. Our vineyards are certified biodynamic.
VINIFICATION
Syrah and Cabernet are 20% handpicks, whole bunches tipped to concrete vats with the machined component going straight on top, no crushing nor destemming, wild fermentation at their own rate until dry, regular hand plunging, pressed to old French barrels, sitting on full lees until April, topped every two weeks. Grenache is a large berry with a fair whack of tannin, it needs to be crushed to get its jelly like pulp out of skins, pressed sweet & run straight to old French oak barrels where it finishes both primary & secondary natural fermentations. The wine remains undisturbed with minimal sulphur added just prior to a May bottling, unfined & unfiltered.
