Visio Vintners Alliance 2020

An intense bouquet of dark berries and plums with secondary aromas of warm spices and a hint of tobacco. Poised and elegant upfront, the mid-palate opens to a generous flourish of cassis and dark chocolate supported by plush tannins leading to a dry and lingering finish.

Most of the fruit for this wine is from our own farm with a few selected parcels from a special property near the ocean in False Bay. After de-stemming the grapes were fermented as whole berries in a combination of stainless-steel tanks and traditional open-top fermenters. After primary fermentation the free run wine was transferred to 300l French oak barrels; 60% new, 40% 2nd and 3rd fill and left to mature for 20 months.
