Description
VINTAGE 2022
Good winter rains, a prevailing mild and dry summer. An excellent vintage.
MUNDA (LAND/TERROIR)
Ancient beach sands left inland tens of thousands of years ago as the sea subsided.
HARVEST
Handpicked mid March.
FERMENTATION
Partially de-stemmed, 10% whole bunch retained the rest as whole berry. Wild yeast fermentation for 10 days.
AGEING
Post fermentation pressed off skins and transferred to a combination of 2nd and 3rd use French oak puncheons and hogsheads for 16 months.
AROMA
An aromatic nose of blueberries, dark cherry fruits, floral and spice notes.
TASTE
Medium to full bodied, blueberry, plum and dark cherry fruits burst onto the palate. Vibrant fruit combines with notes of red flowers, cacao and layers of cooking spice. The hallmark sandy/biscuity tannins of Blewitt Spring linger on the palate.
CELLARING
8-10 years in the right cellaring conditions.
