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. 74% destemmed, 26% carbonic maceration. A light, bright ruby crimson. Perfumed with alpine fruits, hibiscus and a touch of thyme and undergrowth. The palate is light to medium bodied and gently poised, finishing with just the right amount of fine-grained tannins and brisk acidity. A delicious and refreshing red to drink now and over the next two to three years." - 94 Points, Philip Rich, Halliday Wine Companion
