A NOTE FROM THE WINEMAKERS

“I’ll be breaking out this wine for my next barbecue at home.”

SERVING TEMPERATURE | 13 - 18°

CELLAR POTENTIAL | now - 2023

TASTING NOTES

A full flavoured wine with juicy raspberry and mulberry fruit, rich mocha oak and typical soft Merlot tannins.

SEASON

2019 was a warm and very dry season but, thankfully, the Yarra Valley did not receive the punishing heatwaves endured in some other regions. Vintage was fast and furious, with the different varieties coming off in quick succession.

WINEMAKING

This wine is from select vineyards in warmer sites on the Yarra Valley floor. The fruit was destemmed and fermented in stainless steel with pump overs to help maximise colour and flavour. This wine was matured for six months with French oak.

THE REGION

THE REGION

Yarra Valley

One of Australia’s premier cool climate wine regions, the Yarra Valley encompasses such diverse topography that it can produce premium quality fruit in a range of grape varieties.

With its stunning hills and dales ranged before a backdrop of blue mountains, elevations vary greatly. The climate is Mediterranean with a maritime influence from Port Phillips.
