Product Description:
Here is the most attractive bouquet of the latest Warwick releases: pure blackberry and blueberry, laced with graphite and light undergrowth scents. There is an impressive harmony here. On the palate, it is medium-bodied with juicy, ripe tannin. It is based on a core of graphite-infused black fruit with notes of black olive and brine, and the structure on the finish is impressive and of great freshness. The aftertaste offers crisp black pepper and complements a very fine Cabernet from the estate.

Vinifikation
The single vineyard was hand-harvested over a four-day period, with picking beginning early in the morning. In the winery, the grapes were destemmed, gently crushed, and hand-sorted on a vibrating sorting table. A seven-day cold soak was performed to extract color before fermentation began. An isolated yeast culture from Bordeaux was added, and a warm, short fermentation with daily punch-downs and two rack and returns was performed. After fermentation, the wine was left on the skins for a week to allow the tannins to polymerize. Following a light pressing, the wine underwent malolactic fermentation in stainless steel tanks and was racked into 25% new 225-liter French oak barrels, with medium and light toasts, for 27 months of aging. The wine was bottled with a light filtration and aged for 12 months in the bottle before release.
