Peter’s Vision 2016, Catherine Marshall Wines

The Peter’s Vision shows classic, restrained elegance with a mouth filling fruit core and is seamlessly poised with pronounced aromatics of fresh black plums, mulberries, violets and pencil shaving minerality. Tannins are supple and well structured with fresh acidity to support an opulent mid palate for texture and balance.

RECOMMENDED FOOD PAIRING: French Onion soup, Oxtail, Venison, Moroccan tagines, Classic Italian pasta, Lebanese Lamb, Ostrich, Japanese Miso

RECOMMENDED BOTTLE MATURATION: The mineral and gravel-like tannin texture will soften over time. Primary black fruit and spice will become more savoury and gamey as the wine matures. Maturation should peak in 10 years. Serve at 16-180 Celsius.

Catherine Marshall’s approach is classic restraint based on the Bordeaux’s right bank blend of Merlot and Cabernet Franc and is styled around the bright fruit paradigm where both varieties are grown in a cool, maritime climate prevailing in the Elgin Valley. Upfront red and black fruit aromatics are driven by careful and meticulous viticulture husbandry to maximise ripening of tannins without compromising fruit freshness.
