Tasting Notes
The aroma shows chocolate,
blueberry and hints of mint,
sage and vanilla.
The
palate is medium bodied and
elegant with smooth silky
tannins. Sweet bright
blueberry fruit flavours lift
the middle while the finish
is clean and long.
Winemaker's Notes
The fruit for this wine
comes seven different sites
on the property. Due to
vintage conditions fruit was
sourced from an eighth site,
not on the Clairault
property.
All the fruit is fermented
in small 4 tonne vessels and
pumped over twice daily. The
Merlot is taken off skins
after 7 days and the Cabernet
is allowed 10 days on skins.
Maturation occurs in 2-3 year
old French oak barriques for
between 12-18 months.
No recommended products at the moment.
