Sophia
‘Sophia’ -- meaning ‘wisdom’ in Greek mythology -- pays tribute to the goddess of knowledge and experience, information and understanding - a philosophy adopted by the winemakers and viticulturists at Craggy Range when crafting this special wine. The Merlot-dominated blend is a dark garnet colour. Beautifully lifted and complex aromas of spiced red fruits, crushed autumn leaves and sandalwood. Classically composed on the palate with fruit richness given length by balanced acidity and fine dusty tannins. It finishes elegant, dry and long. This could cellar for up to 20 years and is a great pairing for beef.
