Description
Our Signature wines spearhead our viticultural and vinicultural developments
and the yearly renewed implementation of more finite and precise workings.
The incremental growth of Mourvèdre, Carignan, Cinsaut, Tinta Barocca, and Pinotage
in the final blend has contributed much to the depth and complexity of the tannins. The
fruit purity has also been lifted, with remarkable freshness on the palate.
The Columella has taken on many dimensions and interpretations over time, with quality
being the central pillar, but more recently, the response to terroir has been more linear.
This 2024 Columella shows the customary Mediterranean spicy herbal aromas, with
peppery notes and violet accents. It has a lot of fresh red fruit, mulberry, and graphite
aromas, along with some dried figs. On the palate the wine displays chalky firm tannins.
We believe it is some of the best and most complex tannins we have managed to capture
in Columella. The tannins and mouthfeel have been our absolute focus for the past eight
years, and we have spent much time studying the various post-fermentation extraction
points and pressing dates.
