A dry red wine with soft tannins and long finish. Made from Pinot Noir, Regent and Rondo grape varieties. Extended cold soak, fermentation and maceration followed by eighteen months cask maturation in old and new French oak barriques has produced a wine of balance and structure. Black cherry and raspberry fruit on the nose integrated with spiced oak character. Although currently young this wine will continue to develop in bottle with careful cellaring becoming smoother and more complex. Matches well with roast dishes, game and cheese of character.
La Mare Wine Estate has been awarded a bronze medal at the prestigious International Wine and Spirits Competition (IWSC) for their 2023 vintage of Bailiwick Red Wine.
