Notes | Great weather meant the 2015 vintage delivered - our winemakers were delighted by quality fruit with intensity of flavour. The warmth allowed early picking, which meant the fruit had lower sugar levels allowing the depth of flavour to shine through and ensuring the finished wines show great terroir. Fruit was gently de-stemmed as soon as it arrived at the winery and then added to open top fermenters by gravity. A cold soak for five to seven days allowed the early development of colour and flavour prior to fermentation. Delicate hand plunging of the ferments ensure soft extraction of tannin and colour. After 14 days maceration the fruit was gently basket pressed with the free run wine aged in French oak 300L barrels for 12 months. It then received a further 24 months bottle ageing before release creating superb complexity |
