Winemakers’ Notes
This hybrid grape variety fits well into the vineyard program at Karlo Estates. A wine that is dark in colour with very intense flavours of rich, ripe fruit. The grapes were hand-harvested in late October in warm, sunny conditions, de-stemmed and crushed before it was fermented in small bins using selected yeast. The cap was punched down manually, 2-3 times each day until ferment was complete at which time the wine was pressed of the skins. After aging for 15 months this wine was filtered before being gravity-bottled by hand.
Pairing Notes
Pair shepherd’s pie, cashew tomato lasagna, mushroom soup or casserole, black bean tostadas, chilli, harvest stew, grilled garlic, roasted eggplant and a fire.
