Malbec grafted on to vigorous old vine Semillon.

A wine that speaks of femininity and vigour, soft and supple, complex and sultry.

A small parcel of Malbec from the ‘Casino Strip’ Roennfeldt Road was fermented with yeasts indigenous to the winery and vineyard. Resting on skins for a fortnight after a week of fermentation allowed the wine to soften and encouraged the roundness of textural perception. The wine was then pressed to two barrique barrels where a natural malolactic fermentation occurred. This secondary fermentation removed any remaining sharp edges to the acidity. Racked off heavy lees and returned to barrel the wine had 9 months introspection before bottling and release.

Passionately perfumed floral notes and hints of honey and flirtatious red fruits dance to the depths of the palate. A beautiful and intriguing line of acidity waltzes with delicate soft tannins mesmerising the mouth and hypnotising the hand into lifting the glass again and again.

Un-fined, unfiltered, unadulterated.
