Heaps Good Wine Co Zweigelt/Modra Frankinja 2018

Description

Fully destemmed, cold macerated for 4-7 days, pressed to tank with 16-24 days on skins and racked to older French barrels, just under a year in oak.

Medium purple in colour.  Rustic and smoky aromas blend with bright fruit to create a complex aromatic profile.  On the palate bright cassis flavours mix with black cherry.  Soft and velvety tannins with a lifting tart and clean finish.

“Sour cherry, a little smoky paprika note, walnut/hazelnut savouriness and blood orange acidity. Sweet-sour kind of feel, good bright flavour profile, light fuzz to tannins and a sizzling, tart acidity finish keeping things perky. Bright, crunchy red territory here, done well.” 91 points, Mike Bennie, Winefront
