Description
Intense cherry red colour with bright purple hints. On the nose appear red and black fruit aromas such as cherries and blackberry interwoven with a subtle and spicy bay leaf character. On the palate the wine displays soft and sweet tannins, a balanced acidity, nice structure and a medium lovely finish. The vines are vertically positioned, spaced at 1.5 x 2.2 m and drip irrigated. Our vineyard canopy management begins in the spring with the elimination of undesired shoots. The crops are green harvested to eliminate short shoots. Fermentation in temperature controlled stainless steel tanks for 15 days with 2-3 pumpovers a day. The wine was stabilized and then earth filtered before bottling. Food Recommendation:- Enjoy this wine with stew, roast chicken or charcoal grilled hamburgers.
