VINTAGE
The growing season was defined by a continuously warm to
hot summer with no effective rainfall, wind and hail at
flowering, and followed with three major frosts - resulting in
an earlier and much smaller harvest than average. These
tough conditions produced smaller clusters of intensely dark
berries with thick fleshy skins contrasted against brown mature
stalks. Whilst yields were down, once these vineyards were
fermenting in our cellar the concentration of colour, tannin
and aroma of the 2019 vintage was revealed.
TASTING
Full of freshness and bright youthful fruits, the 2019 vintage
brings an opulence and class to the wines. Aromatic plum and
raspberries with freshness and balance, the wine has a round
central core of red fruit that gives way to a complex mid-palate
full of cassis, dark cherry, spice and vanilla. While offering
immense pleasure
My goal in starting a wine collective is to hand pick a unique, fun variety of wines from all over the world. To entice people to step out of the norm and be open to experiencing varietals and bottles that you may never have heard of, never knowing what you were missing! For you to awaken your palate to the bounty and abundance of unique, stunning, sexy wines from all across the globe. I hope wine tasting becomes a passion for you as it is for me! Prepare to be awed!
