This wine is a vibrant expression of its terroir. White pepper greets the nose, followed by undertones of lavender and dried violets. The dark fruit profile includes fresh plum skins and boysenberries, offering a lively fruit intensity, while the use of whole-bunch offers subtle stem-derived complexity. The wine features a medium-bodied palate with an initial burst of pepper and anise spice. As the wine develops, mulberries and blackcurrants take over, with a touch of dried mint complimenting the sweet tannin. The finish is silky, with finely tuned tannins, leaving a smooth and balanced mouthfeel.
