Sons of Eden Kennedy GSM 2023

Tasting Note

Deep crimson in colour this wine has vibrant aromas of raspberries that lead to alluring and complex spice and plum characters. The palate displays concentrated red fruit characters together with complementing sweet spice flavours. Soft and velvety tannins persist the length of the palate that finishes with a subtle savoury nuance.

Winemaking

All three varieties were hand harvested and fermented separately. To promote colour, tannin and flavour extraction the three parcels were cold soaked for a short period prior to warming for fermentation. Slow, cool natural ferments ensured fruit retention and mid palate richness. Post ferment the Grenache and Mourvèdre vessels were soaked further on skins for an additional 11 days before being pressed straight to large oak puncheons for maturation. These parcels were matured in oak for 12 months with minimal intrusion, before being blended, naturally clarified and then bottled.
