Winemaker’s Notes:

Seriously Old Dirt 2021 displays a bright garnet-red colour. This Cabernet Sauvignon lead blend initially greets with a vibrant expression of fruit. Unfolding with fresh plum, black raspberry, mulberry and ripe strawberry. These fruits are beautifully intertwined with subtle spicey notes of shaved nutmeg and dried sage. Palate entry is smooth, luxuriously coating with a silky texture from the fore-palate, broadening on the mid-palate and finishing with layered richness. A line of fresh acidity adds energy to this medium bodied wine. Soft, silky tannins are well integrated, allowing immediate enjoyment, while balanced structure will allow gracious cellaring.

Matured for eighteen months with French oak. Seriously Old Dirt 2021 consists of Cabernet Sauvignon (eighty-eight percent), Malbec (eight percent), Merlot (two percent) and Cabernet Franc (two percent).

Dark fruited nose with aromas of spearmint, vanilla and fresh vegetal nuances. Youthful and vibrant on the palate, medium-bodied.
