Description

By design, this wine is unashamedly provocative. It is in no way subtle. Fermentation with indigenous yeasts, lees-stirring and some skin contact all are accentuated by fermentation and aging in Cigar shaped barrels. Not for the faint hearted but a wine that will certainly provoke conversation. We recommend serving at cellar temperature 8-12 degrees C. Bottled un-fined and unfiltered Production - 1100 bottles .
