Walsh & Sons Roi Cabernet Sauvignon

Grown in our Osmington family vineyard's sandy, clay soils. Rows were planted north to south on a gentle north-east facing slope in 1998. There was no crushing or destemming of the whole bunches. Wild fermented on skins until completely dry. Pressed in a combination of new and old French barrels. It is full and is topped off every two weeks. The wine is left alone and only a small amount of sulphur is added before bottling. Because the wine is unfined and unfiltered, it may contain some harmless deposits in the bottle while the vineyard undergoes biodynamic conversion. On the nose, there are notes of earth, leaves, and dried flowers, as well as fresh blue and dark berries. With long pristine tannins and a deep and rich palate of plums and spiced chocolate.
