A classic red burgundy, hued appearance, very bright with a light unfiltered hue. Varietal and very attractive with a core bouquet of strawberries and tart cherries, there’s preserved roses and a leesy complex minerality. Dry on the palate with core fruit flavours the same as the bouquet suggests. There’s plenty of mouthfeel too, from polished tannins and medium+ acid line. Dried herbs and an earthy savoury complexity. Totally delicious, a wine that Lance Redgwell does well. Lengthy, real, complex, a true freedom wine. Best drinking from day of purchase through 2029+.
