About the Winery

The grapes for this wine are from the vineyard at the front of our basement entryway situated on Radford Road at Seppeltsfield, near Greenock, and were planted in 1989. The vines crop at 1.5 to 2.0 tons every acre of land and when picked are kept separate to create a solitary domain wine. Likewise with all our grapes they are picked on phenological readiness and flavour at a baume range of 14 to 16º. This baume now and then delivers a characteristically occurring high liquor, in spite of the fact that this will rely upon occasional conditions.
The grapes are aged in substantial, shallow open fermenters, pumped over, chilled and squeezed through a basket press. The free run and pressings are kept separate through development and mixed back together one week prior to packaging. The wine is racked into barrel to experience regular MLF. The oak is all French shaved out prepared second-hand hogsheads, with the better barrels being utilized for the pressings. The wine is left to develop in barrels for an aggregate of 27 months and is generally not sifted or fined before packaging.

About the wine

It is brazenly open and expressive. Musk, lavender, blueberries and violets. And after that the more evil darknesses. Lethal nightshade and juniper. Dry dark earth and the old black pepper tin. Also, stewing in the center, scarcely apparent in this current its outset, a vein of delicious sweet fruits.Its flavours are a consistent expansion of this bundle, crooked and strapping, but with very frank gravelly tannins. In other words, an awesome Cabernet, unblemished by fallacy or shine. It doesn't need any.
