Drinking Window: 2021 - 2024
A blend of fruit from four sites, including Villa's prized Taylor's Pass and Seddon vineyards in the cool Awatere Valley. Aromas of smoky red cherry lead to a high-toned, mineral palate of cherry liqueur that has a brisk seam of acidity running through, and integrated oak spice notes from 14 months in barrel, 35% new.
