Description
'Clementine' is the Woodlands Brook Vineyard Cabernet blend, taking its name from Andrew and Marie's daughter.
The fruit was harvested over three weeks from the 27th of March 2019, gently destemmed, then hand-sorted berry by berry in the winery.
In 2019 this wine was fermented, without added yeast, which has enhanced the complexity, particularly in the aromas.
following fermentation the wine spent 17 months in French oak barrels, 60% of which were new.
Our 2019 'Clementine' is a blend of 54% Cabernet Sauvignon, 22% Merlot, 18% Malbec, 5% Cabernet Franc and 1% Petit Verdot.
Bright crimson in colour, the nose is saturated with aromas. Black and red cherry, raspberry, star anise, five-spice and cedar oak feature.
The palate reveals more primary red fruit, together with liquorice and cocoa. Fresh acidity keeps everything in balance, while spice and young firm tannins unveil upon decanting.
