Winemaker Notes:
"Notes of black cherry, blackberry, orange peel. The fruit for this year’s Nero comes from wine that was 1/3 aged on the skins in amphora and 2/3 fermented on skins, then pressed into neutral French oak barrels. The grapes in amphora are left on the skins through January then basket pressed back into the amphora to develop for another 5 months. The juice in barrel is left to age for 10 months.
The Badger on our label plays on the Scottish Gaelic translation of Broc, which is Badger. When we first brought in the Nero from Fox Hill, the original owner (Lowell Stone) loved our label mentioning how much he loved animals and critters. We love how the badger has become our winery mascot."
Alcohol: 13%
