Terra del Capo Arne 2007

Savoury black olive, white pepper and soy sauce aromatics.
This is a big, bold wine with spicy red fruit, maraschino cherry richness and cashew nut creaminess. Firm structure and frame are enhanced by a dry, tannic grip. Seamless and well crafted it is elegant and genteel yet boasts a good, long finish.

in the vineyard : The Sangiovese vineyard is situated on a warmer site where afternoon breezes cool the vines, keeping them fresh until morning. The Sangiovese on this farm is known as the easier child of all the blocks, as these vines grow and respond quickly and gratefully to the climate and viticultural practices. Some green harvesting is done in the late season and the vigour and size of bunches, which tend to be big, are managed constantly. The Merlot is from a different farm, which ripens at the same time as the Sangiovese.
