Culmina Hypothesis Red Blend 2017

The wine was aged 16 months in French oak barrels (35% new, 20% one-year old and 45% neutral. The wine begins with aromas of cassis, dark cherries and cedar. The rich palate delivers complex flavours: dark cherry mingles with licorice and spice. The finish is long. (Other,Sept. 21, 2023)
