Notes & Pairings

This is 50/50 estate blend of Kadarka and Merlot. Briefly macerated overnight, everything was then direct pressed with equal parts going into stainless steel and used barrel. Aged on the lees for 8 months and bottled unfined/unfiltered. Lighter than a Siller (in between a Rosé and light red), but heading in that darker color with tons of spicy freshness. Very limited on this vintage, but more to come from the 2020 vintage and in a more Siller style.
