2020 'Soft Soft Big Big' Cab. Sauv.
To hold,
to be big,
and to be soft,
too.
Soft soft.
Big big.
The first release of UN PO'. A visceral, savoury, transformational experience. Intense stewed red fruit, wild herbs & spices. The perfect accompaniment to existential meanderings and meandering exorcisms.
GRAPES
100% Cabernet Sauvignon.
ZERO Sulphur. ZERO Adds.
13.5% Alc/vol.
FIELD NOTES
Wild fermented in a single 400L open-fermenter. Hand plunged twice daily releasing vibrant aromas of baked cherry pie. Pressed with Bonnie, our basket press, into a single, aged 300L barrel and matured in barrel for 11 months, before hand-bottling with love. A 100% natural wine; nothing but wild fermented, organic grape juice. Zero added sulphur. Zero added anything. Only 33 dozen made.
TASTES
Stewed spiced cherries, currants, dried fennel and anise. A warm hug with a delicate dapple of afternoon light. Generous deep fruits, moderate tannin and body, all about balance.
PERSONA
This is jazz.
