The phenomenal 2017 vintage of this Left Bank Bordeaux style blend culminated in vines that were perfectly balanced, restrained and boasted with the smallest, most concentrated berries. This leaves me with the informed opinion that the vintage of 2017 is without a doubt recognised as one of the most exceptional vintages. It could easily be compared to some of our most successful vintages in the history of De Toren!

VINTAGE: Non-vintage: (Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon (2012) is carefully matured in third fill French oak barrels for twelve months. The 2013 Malbec is fermented without skin contact and aged in Stainless steel tanks to retain the primary fruit aromas and freshness of the wine.
TASTING NOTES:
Imagine the sensual pleasure of fresh, ripe, red strawberries combined with rose petals, marshmallows and the mystical aroma of cinnamon. The gentle tannins and delicate balance of acidity gives this wine its unique character of being fresh, youthful and light. The flavours are playful and mischievous in the mouth with a lingering, lazy aftertaste.

MATURATION/PROCESS:
Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon is carefully matured in third fill French oak barrels for twelve months. The Malbec is fermented and aged in Stainless steel tanks to retain the primary fruit aromas and freshness of the wine.

The Wine
This wine really plays to the strengths of RedHeads – each year, we select the very best parcels
of McLaren Vale Shiraz. We don’t tie ourselves to one grower or one area, but search out where
Nature has been most magnanimous in her gifts of good weather and where growers have
made full use of what she has bestowed.
What we can guarantee each year is richness of fruit and real power, all wrapped in the soft
vanilla tones of larger American oak. Consistently gorgeous, luscious and totally irresistible.
Tasting Note
Deep purple-toned crimson. Brooding aromas of dark red fruits (plums and mulberries) with
the sweet scent of cedary oak. Liquid velvet with spicy blackberry and raspberry power,
 nishing on notes of smoky liquorice, generously wrapping a framework of rounded tannins.

GRAPE VARIETY
Grenache - Syrah

ORIGIN
The grapes come from three terroirs: 65% come from the eastern Corbières (coastal vineyards yield grapes that lend freshness and elegance), 20% from the edge of the Fitou (a terroir located further south whose grapes offer lovely aromatic richness) and 15% from the Corbières Boutenac cru which give this wine its depth.

VINIFICATION
The grapes are handpicked and brought to the winery in 40 to 50-kg tubs where they are immediately transferred to tanks without crushing or pumping. Maceration lasts 15 days. The press wine is added to the free-run wine.

AGEING
40% in barrels (20% new oak) and 60% in stainless steel

tanks.

TASTING NOTES
Very intense black colour.
Floral nose reminiscent of violet along with fine spices (white pepper), black olive and notes of humus and tobacco.

ORIGIN
The grapes for this wine come from four terroirs: the area of Nîmes which gives complex notes, the eastern Aude valley which lends elegance, the Béziers plain which brings richness and the western Aude region.
VINIFICATION
Relatively long maceration. Part of the cuvée undergoes carbonic maceration. 6- to 9-months ageing in oak barrels for a part of the blend, the remaining is aged in stainless steel vats.
TASTING NOTES
Dark robe.
Aromas of blackcurrant, blackberry, cherry, peat, cinnamon, thyme.
Round, rich and long palate with ripe tannins.

WINE AND FOOD
