Visio Vintners Alliance 2022

An intense bouquet of dark berries and plums with secondary aromas of warm spices and a hint of tobacco. Poised and elegant upfront, the mid-palate opens to a generous flourish of cassis and dark chocolate supported by plush tannins leading to a dry and lingering finish.

in the vineyard : The grapes for this wine all come from the Stellenbosch region of South Africa, an area globally recognized for the production of premium red wines with excellent ageability

in the cellar : After de-stemming the grapes were fermented as whole berries in a combination of stainless-steel tanks and traditional open-top fermenters. After primary fermentation the free run wine was transferred to 300l French oak barrels; of which a 100% were 2nd and 3rd fill and left to mature for 15 months before bottling.
