Note di degustazione
Released in Spring 2024, the 2021 Hexameter artfully combines red and black fruit on the nose, with raspberries and blackberries wrapped in a coating of mocha and tobacco. Medium to full-bodied, it's bright and fresh on the palate, framed by soft tannins and finishing almost zesty and long. This year's assemblage includes 50% Cabernet Franc, 33% Cabernet Sauvignon, 12% Merlot and 5% Petit Verdot.

Majority Cabernet Franc, with Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot. Medium, verging on deep, purple in colour. Dark cherry, molasses and spice on the palate. Concentrated and mouth-filling with chewy tannin and lengthy fresh acidity that helps to extend a long berry-laced finish. (SCJ)
Bottled in June, the 2021 Hexameter is based on 50% Cabernet Franc, 33% Cabernet Sauvignon, and the balance Merlot and Petit Verdot, raised 20 months in 50% new French oak. This deep ruby/purple-hued beauty has a stunning bouquet of black raspberries, wild strawberries, spring flowers, and dark chocolate. It's full-bodied on the palate, has an incredibly pure, seamless mouthfeel, silky tannins, and a great finish.
The 2021 Hexameter turned out beautifully. Rich, ample and super-expressive, the 2021 offers up scents of mocha, dried cherry, leather, gravel and dried herbs. Cabernet Franc plays the leading role in this potent, structured red. Bright acids liven up the finish beautifully. All this needs is time.
