TASTING NOTES

winemaking

Selected parcels of Merlot fruit were fermented in rotary and static fermenters. After fermentation, the wine remained on skins for seven to ten days before gentle pressing. It was matured on French oak for three to six months prior to blending and bottling, resulting in excellent colour, richness, and a complex flavour profile.

VINTAGE

The 2024 vintage benefited from excellent grape ripening conditions. The combination of warm days, cool nights, and minimal rainfall during the summer led to optimally ripe fruit. This produced wines with distinctive varietal flavours, including bright, spicy reds and fresh, aromatic whites.
