Villa Botanica (Red)

Color

Red.

Terroir

Clay limestone.

Grape variety

70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Syrah.

Vinification and maturing

The grapes are de-stemmed then left to macerate for around ten days. During this time, our only extraction work involves pumping over daily to release the full potential of the fruit.
The grapes are then pressed with the presses kept separated. The wines are then racked in order to remove the coarser lees before malolactic fermentation begins. After fermentation, the wines are racked again, then cooled to ensure optimal stability in the vat.

Tasting notes

This wine boasts a deep, dense purple robe, and a nose of red fruit
flavours and subtile hints of spices. This is a fruity concentrated Cabernet. The structure on the palate is smooth and elegant.

Food pairing
