The Shiraz, Grenache, Mourvedre and Viognier vineyards farmed for this blend are East-West facing and are grown in deep Oakleaf soils. The vines are vertically shoot positioned on extended trellises for optimal vine ripening and sunlight penetration. Irrigation is scheduled according to soil moisture monitoring.

All red wines underwent MLF and 13 months of ageing in second and third fill barrels ensuring good wood/fruit integration. · The wine was then blended and lightly filtered shortly before bottling.

Food Pairing

This elegantly bright and fruity blend pairs well with dishes which are flavourful, but slightly lighter such as charcuterie and olives, capers or pesto.
