What The Fellas Say

Like driving a gold-rimmed Bentley down your throat. Intense and rich and delicious. Not for the faint-hearted. This 15.5% ABV beauty is an old vine field blend made from “goblet” vines which means the vines aren’t grown on trellises or supports. Basically, these grapes are tough SOBs, and their juice is complex and deeply layered. Plus 30 months in barriques and you’ve got a wine stinking of chocolate, cherry and black plum that you can really sink your teeth into.

What The Sommelier Says

Medium ruby colour, with aromas of black and red fruit and a distinct minerality, complemented by subtle spices and rockrose. On the palate, it is fresh, balanced and textured with medium acidity and rough tannins, revealing notes of cherry, plum, and a hint of black pepper, delivering a long and refined finish.

Pairs well with…

…a grilled ribeye steak with garlic and rosemary, wild mushroom risotto with parmesan, a charcuterie board with prosciutto, chorizo, and aged salami.
