Ken Forrester The Gypsy 2014

Taken to the cellar and cool soaked prior to fermentation, then taken to old French oak barrels for 12 months. At this point a further selection takes place before blending and the final blend goes back to old barrels to marry and harmonise over the following 12 months. After almost 2 years languishing in a cool cellar the Gypsy is stable with the oak and intense fruit totally harmonised.

A blend of Grenache, Shiraz & Mourvedre. Strong red fruit aromas with undertones of broken shale. Smooth damsons and plums, vanilla notes and firm tannins, quiet complex but has a soft gentle side in the mouth. Exceptional wine with aromas of red fruit with hints of nutmeg, cinnamon and dark spices.

Deliciously matched with risotto, sensuously truffled pasta. Ideal for flavoursome grills, lamb and beef.
