Tasting Notes
From three vineyards: Onannon’s original Red Hill site (23-year-old vines, MV6, 777) and a site in Shoreham (19-year-old vines, MV6) and a site in Merricks North (20 years old, MV6). About 5% new oak. 10% whole bunches. All the 777 and some of the MV6 clone from the Red Hill site used as the whole bunch portion. One week post-ferment maceration.
Perfumed, bright nose with cherries and stone fruits. Nice, juicy core with a sense of roundness. Orange peel note and some chew to the tannins, which carry the fruit well.
The palate has a richness and plushness which will delight. Wonderfully balanced, with a structure that will reward careful cellaring - although is drinking very well now.
