Rutherglen Durif at its absolute finest
Deep, dark red, dense, beginning to show aged brick notes. Rich dark plum fruit and violets, integrated with lightly charred oak.
The Barkly Durif 2016 Tasting NoteSelect parcels of premium fruit were fermented on skins in closed fermenters for ten days and aged in new to 3 year old French puncheons for 27 months.
Enjoy as a matured wine with whole baked rib eye with roast bone marrow, triple cooked potatoes and mustard. Alternatively a rich venison cacciatore dish over creamy polenta. A rich and powerful wine that is structured, balanced and maintains a certain elegance. Drinking beautifully now or over the next few years.
