Description
The fruit was hand-harvested in the early morning. The Grenache Noir , Carignan and Shiraz grapes were all hand sorted and fermented in foudre (open-top French oak barrels). The Grenache Noir and Carignan had 10 – 20 % of whole bunch grapes added to the bottom of the foudre for added spice and fruit. The individual components were matured separately in 2nd to 4th fill French oak barrels for 18 months and then barrel selected, blended, lightly filtered and finally bottled.

This wine speaks to me. On many levels!!
It has beautiful elegance – not trying to be smart, or OTT, it hits the spot.
It has shared lots of my secrets with friends and on numerous occasions with me, myself and I. There is a connection!!
I’m still trying to figure out ‘his/her’ secret – and I won’t give up!
Thank you!!

Excellent wine, as good as any Chateau neuf du pape. Well done! Bought 6 bottles and got them shipped to Sweden together with 6 bottles Eenzsaamheid Shiraz. Cheers!
