Produced under the direction of renowned winemaker Stephan Asseo, this distinctive blend combines Rhône and Bordeaux grape varieties, showcasing the winery's signature approach to creating powerful yet balanced wines.\u003cbr\u003eThe 2020 vintage consists of 58% Syrah, 31% Cabernet Sauvignon and 11% Petit Verdot. Syrah contributes concentrated dark-fruit flavours and savoury complexity, while Cabernet Sauvignon provides structure, depth and elegance. Petit Verdot completes the blend with additional colour, tannins and aromatic complexity.\u003cbr\u003eMade using 100% estate-grown fruit from L'Aventure Vineyard, the wine reflects the distinctive terroir of the Willow Creek District. The 2020 vintage also marked the first year the winery used optical sorting during harvest, helping improve fruit selection and consistency.\u003cbr\u003eThe wine was aged for 14 months in French oak barrels, comprising 65% new oak and 35% one-year-old oak, with malolactic fermentation taking place in barrel. Bottled without fining or filtration, it retains its natural richness and complexity.\u003cbr\u003eThe result is a full-bodied and beautifully balanced red wine with concentrated black and red fruits, savoury herbs, smoky nuances and polished tannins. Its combination of richness, freshness and structure makes it an excellent choice for premium wine enthusiasts and collectors. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColour:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDeep ruby red with intense purple reflections.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eExpressive aromas of black cherry, ripe blackberry and dark red fruits, complemented by grilled meat, charcuterie, thyme, crushed violets and subtle smoky nuances.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFull-bodied and concentrated with layers of black cherry, blackberry and dark berries.
