Tasting Notes

Colour
Luminous cherry to ruby-red in colour
Aroma
The aroma is superbly lifted and irresistibly alluring, bursting with a vivid, garden-fresh bouquet. Intensely perfumed floral notes and sweet musk mingle with ripe strawberry, crushed raspberry, and red liquorice, complemented by delicate nuances of white pepper, fresh thyme, rosemary, and subtle, sweet earth
Palate
On the palate, it is light-bodied, vivacious, and oozing with juicy red berry energy. Crunchy fresh fruits explode upfront, seamlessly interwoven with a slatey minerality, fine savoury herbs, and a subtle stalky edge that adds extra dimension. Fine, chalky tannins and a plush line of sherbet-like acidity provide a seamless backbone, carrying the wine through to an extraordinarily long, pure, and persistent finish
Cellaring
Drink now and over the next five years.

Vineyard

Vintage 2026

Above-average winter and spring moisture, then one of the driest, warmest summers on record. February rain and a mild March and April followed. Yields were down around 25%, with excellent quality across the range.
