This is the star of the show and the core 'estate' wine. Made from 65% Garnacha (45+ year old bush vines) 30% Syrah and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon (15 year old high-density planted vines) planted on granite and sand at 650m above sea level. This wine is 70% destemmed / 30% whole bunch with a 4 day pre-soak and 20 day maceration before being aged in old barrels, large format oak and concrete. This wine is rich, complex and giving with lots of wild strawberry and blueberry fruit, spice and complex herbal notes.
"Black cherries with plums and boysenberries and a hint of white pepper on the nose. A fluid entry on the palate, with a firm, velvety tannin structure that builds gradually, giving a fuller mouth-feel at the end with a composed, fruity finish."
92/100 - James Suckling
