Eikendal, Charisma, 2021

For me, New World wines are at their best when they're cherry picking the best elements from Old World winemaking, and making something that's better than the sum of its parts.

The best varietals, the best winemaking practices, the best terroir.

This is truly global in style, full of charisma (it's in the name!). It’s bold, charming and seductive, bringing together the flavours of Rhône, Bordeaux and Italy.

While this is highly approachable in its youth, with red fruit and violets on the nose, it certainly has the structure to age.
