TASTING NOTE:
Colour: Pale Ruby, clear
Nose: The wine shows depth and character of bright red fruits of cranberry, blackcurrant and raspberry, blood orange notes with pepper & cardamon spice on the nose.
Palate: Palate is vibrant and driven. Red fruits, spices, olive, sour cherry & graphite. Bright acid and fine silky tannins. Long persistent finish.
This wine is delicate, driven and a pure representation of our site here at Petrichor. The wine has power, length and balance on the palate. Layered and complex, this textural wine is a wonderful pairing for complex dishes. This wine has the ability to age and is a medium-term cellar proposition.
