- Dark aubergine core with a deep purple rim. Enthralling aromatics immediately offer distinguishable finesse and power yet with precision and focus. The lifted satsuma plum, black currant and dark cherry, espresso and cocoa, Turkish delight, star anise, Earl Grey tea and black olive combine with gorgeous plumes of subtle vanilla pod, sandalwood and mild cardamom aromas. The palate is dense, firm and powerful yet holds incredibly balanced fruit intermingled with voluminous structure. It's one of the better Runrigs from such a balanced and even growing season. A wine for the cellar -best after 2025-2060. Serve at 16C/60Fwith delicious rich flavoured cuisines of most countries
The 2021 summer growing season was mild, with even and cool daily temperatures. Enhanced by good rains during the winter and spring of 2020, our vineyards grew wonderful canopies and developed well-formed grape bunches. As a result of this long flavour development cycle in the vineyard, 2021’s signature is wines of high aromatic lift with densely coloured tints and exceptional balance.

Aubergine core with deep purple rim. Powerful and impressive lifted black fruits of blackberry, plum and cherry with underlying dark chocolate complex undertones and
spice. Full-bodied, intense, firm, and long. The tannins are impressive, as are the depth and balance, which will live on for decades. An impressive Runrig.

| Winery | The Highland clans used a ‘Runrig’ system to distribute land amongst their clansmen in widely dispersed holdings. The emphasis was not on any one farm but rather the communal element of the whole. Shiraz from old dry-grown vineyards is blended with Viognier, complementing the strengths and complexities of these individual parcels of fruit whilst giving the resulting wine a further dimension. |
