A rustic wine, in a good way. It’s savoury, earthy and full of very dark fruit, a mix of currants and juniper with woodsy spices, licorice root and loads of meaty flavours. It’s like the deli section in a market. No shortage of acidity either, helpful if serving with charcuterie.

Notes
For the 2019 Shadowfax Minnow Carignan we hand picked the grapes in the cool of the morning to retain vibrancy. The Carignan fruit was destemmed into small open fermenters, where wild yeast performed their magic. The ferments when lightly hand plunged to extract fine tannins. The wine was then pressed and left to rest in older French hogsheads. The wine was racked then blended and bottled in September 2020.
The nose shows dark blood plum, briary spice, hints of liquorice. Brooding game meats add further intrigue. Black cassis fruits flow onto a round palate. Sappy tannins build through the wine, with a distinct Carignan crunch at the back of the palate. This dark and building wine has presence on the palate that rolls on that thrives with food. – Al Timms, Shadowfax
