We’ve been making the Warwick Trilogy for almost 30 years, without skipping a vintage! It’s a powerful new-world expression of Stellenbosch terroir that sets itself apart; not only by being Cabernet Franc-fronted, but also through its multiple international awards.
The palate is as rich as it is intense. Superbly concentrated blackberries and cassis show on the palate, complicated by aromas of sweet spices and savoury elements. The tannins are firm, but well-structured and will allow the wine to age gracefully over the next 5 – 10 years. If you just can’t bear to wait, a few hours in the decanter will go some way to helping the wine open up.
Each component was harvested separately,de-stemmed and hand sorted into tank. The wines spent between 20 and 40 days on the skins, depending on their tannin structure with three or four pump overs per day. Once the fermentation is completed the wines are pressed to undergo malolactic fermentation in barrel and tank. After completion, the wine was racked to French oak barrels (55% new,2% third fill and 42% forth fill) for a period of 24 months before a strict selection process,where only the best barrels from the best blocks are selected. Components are blended and allowed to clarify naturally before filtration and bottling.
