Merlot, Nero d'Avola and Syrah. The 3 varietals were all harvested and vinified seperately in order to facilitate maximum complexity, the grapes were destemmed and crushed before maceration on skins for 10-14 days, then ageing partly in steel vessels and partly in 2 year old barrels for 3 months.

An elegant mouthful of crunchily textured, ripe berry fruit, redcurrants and spices. Ruby colour with purple hues. Aromas of crushed strawberries and spice on the nose with a soft, silky palate, supple tannins and fresh acidity that is rich and concentrated showing a hint of chocolate and a long, elegant finish.

Wine Reviews: Four Star rating, Decanter magazine December 2007.

Ready to Drink? Yes and no, great now with soft tannins and rich fruit but will mature nicely for 2-4 years.
