Description / Reviews
"On the nose there’s abundant summer red berries, orange rind and pomegranate seed. Classic Meunier rosehip tea backed by juicy ripe watermelon. This year being warm at elevation, we opted to ferment using 40% carbonic maceration for 5 days. This method ensured amped up fruitfulness and freshness in a finer boned package. There’s a hint of dusty new burgundian oak (10%) eeking tannin and just a flicker of new wood. The palate is plush, fruit forward but not without length backed by bright natural acidity. Strawberry Fields is the perfect anytime-wine, best served with family and friends - and as always, don't be afraid to 'chill down' should the weather and occasion suit." - Winemaker Notes
"Sourced from the Burder vineyard at 841m on the Whitlands High Plateau. 10% whole bunches and left on skins for 10 days. A pale garnet. Comes into its own on the bouquet, which is fragrant with aromas of gently poached strawberries, mountain herbs and a little sous bois. I like how this fills out on the light- to medium-bodied palate, finishing with bright acidity and a touch of grip. Serve this lightly chilled on a warm day. Or any day for that matter!" - 93 Points, Philip Rich, Halliday Wine Companion
