Description

Handpicked from 26 year old Mendoza vines, this wine is very expressive with many layers. The palate is rich and full bodied yet displays a tightly structured minerality typical of the clone. Abundant flavours of stone fruit and citrus with hints of nuts, the finish is beautifully supported with elegant oak and good acidity.

A wine created by nature’s elements. The grapes are handpicked, whole bunched pressed, and the juice run directly into French 500L oak puncheons. Wild yeasts from the vineyard provide a natural fermentation. The wine is left to develop in barrel for 12 months.
