Cabernet Sauvignon berries were lightly crushed to aid tannin extraction, while Merlot, Malbec and Petit Verdot underwent whole berry fermentation to enhance fruit purity and plushness. Cabernet Franc was fermented and matured in clay amphora, adding further complexity to the blend. Hand plunging throughout fermentation allowed gentle extraction of colour, flavour and texture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eProducer Tasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePerfumed violets, freshly picked herbs and boysenberry fruit unfold across a medium-bodied palate with an accessible and generous fruit profile. Brimming with freshness, the wine combines leafy lift, aniseed spice and berry-bright acidity.
