The contact with grape skins during fermentation is what gives red wine its colour and tannins, which can vary from light ruby to dark crimson and even deep purple, depending on the variety and winemaking techniques. Red wine is incredibly flavoursome, favouring bold red and black fruits like cherries, blackberries, and plums. It's not uncommon to also taste hints of dark chocolate alongside aromas of vanilla, tobacco, white pepper, and earthy spices. Honestly, whatever gets you going. Wine is a *serious libation* designed for pure drinking pleasure. We like to serve ours with smoked meats, BBQ veg, spicy pizza, pasta, dippy bread and fancy cheese.

With Pinot's perfumed appeal from first sniff, this is bright and fruity with spice and purple floral notes. There's a lightness to the palate before the rush of tannins clips its wings, adding structure, savoriness and pithy texture. Finishes a touch tart and astringent.
