Comments
A deep plum and
cherry wine with fruit and oak on the nose, overlaid with chocolate
and mocha. This is a complex wine and on the palate the fruit is in
harmony with the mocha elements, with plums and cherries to the
fore. An excellently balanced wine with good length. A wine to be
enjoyed young.

Cellar Techniques
Cold soaked for 12 hours with
fermentation lasting 7 days with 3 pump overs every day. Malolactic
fermentaion was done with oak to make early wood integration
possible. Dark toasted french oak was used to obtain French coffee,
chocolate and mocha aromas. The wine was treated with a fresh egg
white before fining and filtering.
