The colour is medium red with vibrant hues. The bouquet is perfumed, rich and complex with star anise spice and red fruits intermingled with black cherry, blueberry, plum and harmonious oak influence. Use of whole bunches in the press adds subtle complexity.
The palate is a mirror image of the bouquet. This wine has superb length of flavour, a wonderful sweet fruit overlay, mineral acid drive and silky fine tannins.
Deep crimson-purple; competes with its sister Bay of Fires Pinot, and has a similar throbbing power behind the deep colour of its robes. It is still impossibly young and trenchantly demands time for its texture to open up and its spicy black cherry/plum to supply the mouthfeel.
