Exotic aromas of wild strawberry and dark cherry with hints of forest floor and bay leaf. A seamless and elegant palate of fleshy red fruits layered with violet and spice. Delicate tannins are supported by generous length and drive.

Hand-picked from low-yielding vines across Mappinga Road, Charleston and Ironstone Road vineyards. Fruit chilled for 48 hours, wild fermented using a mix of partial whole-bunch and whole-berry techniques. Matured for 8 months in large format French oak (20% new) to build texture and integration.

Sourced from multiple cool-climate Adelaide Hills sites, supporting slow ripening, aromatic lift, natural acidity and fine tannin structure typical of the region.
