Winemaker Notes
Sourced from specially selected vineyards in Coonawarra, the grapes were gently crushed and underwent a precise two-week fermentation period on the skins. Following fermentation, the must was delicately pressed before transferring to French oak barrels for maturation. The wine matured gracefully in oak, allowing for the seamless integration of oak-derived tannis. The final blend was carefully crafted to achieve excellent depth and complexity.
