tasting note.
A medley of small berry and fruit flavours including blackcurrant, raspberry, strawberry, mulberry and blackberry combine with a hint of anise and vanilla to give a wine that is instantly gratifying in flavour whilst showing good structure and tannin concentration to allow for some maturation.  Bottled under screwcap to ensure quality.
Delicious served with chargrilled sirloin steak, or slow cooked lamb shanks.
Vinification 
The vines are grown on Malmesbury shale on deep red clay, and were harvested in March 2008.  A variety of vinification methods were used in making the components of this special blend.  Open top fermentations with punchdown routines as well as closed fermentations and pumpovers were employed to suit the needs of each variety in the blend.  The resultant, soft tannins and berry flavours have been blended to compose a modern fruit driven wine with class.
