All vineyards are sustainable farmed to ensure best quality grapes. The grapes were all hand harvested early in the morning at optimum ripeness.

MERLOT

 

The grapes were destemmed and the whole berries were fermented in stainless steel tanks. Pump overs were done on a regular basis to ensure good extraction of flavors and color. Fermentation took about 14 days at 24 °C before the tanks were then pressed and allowed to complete malolactic fermentation. The wines were blended and tank matured for 8 months before bottled.

Tasting Notes
Dark plum ruby purple of colour. Vibrant jammy fruits with layers of plums, red cherries and blackberries. The ripe red fruits flow onto the palate complimented by a soft smooth tannin structure. Medium smooth bodied style of wine.
