As gestured to in the name, these wines are an introduction to the Miles Mossop winemaking story, they are fruit foward and fresh whilst maintaining a sense of place and complexity, choosing not to use new wood to keep the vibrant flavours unmasked.Â
This is a lively red blend made predominantly with Cabernet Sauvignon and blended further with Cinsault and Merlot from Stellenbosch, and aged in old oak for 20 months. The colour is a deep cherry red with cassis and blackberry aromas and a touch of herbaceousness. The tannins are fine and integrated with a full body, and juicy red fruit flavours on the palate.Â
