This wine is delicate and reflects its true sense of place. Vines are hand manicured and grow in rocky soils on the coolest south facing slopes at our Sophie’s Hill vineyard.

Made from multiple clones (MV6 and French clones 114, 115 and 777) and matured in new and old French barriques (30% new).

The fragrance is beautiful with spice, black cherry and raspberry notes. There is a depth of flavour and purity with fine tannins.

“Ace of Trumps 2018 shows real depth and intent. There’s intensity, but also restraint dark berries, spice and a beautiful structure that holds everything together. It drinks beautifully now, but you can tell it will reward patience. A standout wine that lives up to its name.”
