2020 Terroir Strewn Three
In Stock
Strewn Three, our flagship red wine, is a three varietal blend that is unique each time it is made, and only in years where the grapes were of outstanding quality and the wines are suited to long term cellaring .
The three classic varietals of the Bordeaux Region of France, are used to make Strewn Three. Merlot is harvested first, followed by Cabernet Franc and finally Cabernet Sauvignon. Each of the three varietals provides a specific element to the final blend: Merlot gives softer tannins, smooth texture and ripe fruit flavours, Cabernet Franc brings spiciness and earthiness, and Cabernet Sauvignon adds firm tannins and notes of cassis.
