From 12.18.17. First wine with Charles Williams, the winemaker. Very interesting blend, 50% of the fruit is from 2016 of which all is skinless Malbec fermented as a white wine and then blended in with Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon from 2015.
Light purplish ruby red. Vibrant nose with red berries, cherries, strawberries, spices, leather, floral notes, a slight bit of green and a touch of chalk. Medium tannins (5/10) and higher acidity with a light plus body. Notes of tobacco, cherries, leather, dust and gravel with a medium finish. Solid summer red wine, especially if a little chilled. Drink till 2020.
Mostly sold through the cellar door and 1,300 cases produced.
