Made from 100% Abel clone grapes from the esteemed Te Muna Road site, renowned for its alluvial gravels and distinctive character.
Handled with meticulous care, fermented with indigenous yeasts, and aged in new French oak barriques for 20 months to achieve a silky texture and complex flavor profile.
Experience a symphony of raspberry coulis, dark cherry, cedar, and rosehip, with layers of bitter orange, dark fruits, and sandalwood, balanced by a firm tannin structure and a vibrant, crunchy freshness.
