Description
The last couple of vintages have seen a classic return to seasonal patterns where a cold rainy winter prepares the vines for warm temperatures later. In 2018 the precipitation carried later into the Spring which extended the growing period. With fewer heat spikes the fruit ripened at a steady pace producing larger yields of well-balanced fruit. Flavours of mocha and blackberry, anise, with nice acidity, length and structured tannins.
