Green Pepper  -  Red Fruit  -  Ripe Lemon    
 
2024 was an exceptionally wet year, pushing back harvest by 4 weeks, however we managed to obtain a very high quality harvest with with expressive and spicy character. The hand harvested bunches were placed into a a stainless steel fermentation tank for anaerobic whole bunch fermentation for 20 days before we removed the bunches and pressed them very slowly over 8 hours in our vertical press. 
 
This gentle technique helped to develop an expressive classic profile with a light and precise red wine that fans of this style will instantly recognise and enjoy whilst also finding the presentation new and exciting.    
 
Ruptis is great to drink slightly chilled by itself, but it would also make a great accompaniment to modern European food and spicy stir fries. 
 
Serve at room temperature after allowing the wine to breath.
