High toned, almost sharp red fruit start the expression with lifted acidity. This is really quite a gentle expression, fruit is lively but there’s little density, instead there’s a soft layer of chalky tannins which gives the texture and mouthfeel. This works though, it’s harmonious and leans into the vintage taking fruity purity and delivery a charming glass of wine. A subtle chewiness lingers on the finish with raspberry, cranberry and some soft clove and cedar spices. There’s freshness though, cool mint all the way through. I like this light style. A yield of 45hl/ha. Ageing 30% one use barrels. 3.6pH
