Description
DeMorgenzon Maestro Blue is a Rhône blend counterpart to their Bordeaux-blend Maestro Red. Predominantly Syrah with support from Durif, Grenache, Mourvèdre and Malbec. The 2021 vintage has notes of red and black berry fruit, white pepper and spice. The palate is finely structured, showing an array of ripe fruit and floral undertones, with a lingering aftertaste.
Fruit was carefully hand sorted and naturally fermented, whole berry. Post fermentation maceration was allowed for two weeks, followed by gentle pressing. Maturation was for a total of 18 months in French oak, in a selection of 300 litre casks and 3000 litre Foudres. The wine was bottled with minimal fining and a minimal filtration.
72% Syrah, 11% Durif, 7% Grenache, 7% Mourverde, 3% Malbec
