An abundance of sweet fruit, black pepper and savoury gamey aromas. The palate is elegant with supple fruit, vibrant acidity and plenty of fine-grained tannins, emulating the structure of the Northern Rhône classics, Hermitage and Côte Rôtie. The first in a line of early 20th century battleships bestowed with the motto "Fear God and dreadnought" and embodying a supreme combination of speed and power, Dreadnought denotes our steepest and most breathtaking hillside Syrah vineyards.

Winemaking
The majority of fruit was sorted, destemmed and then treated in our typical manner; no crushing, no yeast or additions and an extended time in vat. However, a few select ferments we added up to 15% whole clusters to the bottom of each vat before destemming on top. When pressed, the wines stayed in barrel for 18 months with a natural malolactic fermentation occuring in the spring before bottling under screw cap in February 2016.
