Yields from the vineyard was low but the fruit showed excellent intensity with
acid levels holding in the grapes for a prolonged period providing near perfect
ripening conditions. Winemakers are talking about vintage ‘22 wines as
elegant and structured, with depth and length of flavour.
Full-bodied, bright fruit aromas of cassis, blackberries, violets interweave a
hint of leather, unfolding eucalyptus, pencil shavings and earth. Fine-grained
tannin extraction offers a chewy palate; fruit is bright and attractive with
complexity, lively acidity added roundness.
