Nose
Fragrant aromas of blue fruits with notes of plums and mulberry with a fennel seed and mace lift.
Palate
A lush, concentrated palate with lashings of berry fruit balanced by anise and musk. Red acidity with excellent textural fine tannins that provide fantastic length.
Growing Conditions
Due to the warm spring then summer season, our 2020 vintage started two weeks earlier than average. Dry and mild conditions carried on through the ripening stages of all our red varieties, providing ample opportunities for perfect fruit and phenolic ripeness.
For this blend, we selected two parcels of Wilyabrup fruit with an average vine age of 20 years: one from sand over clay soils located close to the coast, and one on free draining gravelly ironstone. Both parcels are spur pruned and low yielding with excellent bunch architecture.
