A refined and elegant hand-crafted Merlot dominant blend that represents both the Vigneron's art and an inherent understanding of the land, ensuring 'Sophia' is the finest expression of the terroir and the people. 'Sophia', meaning 'wisdom' in Greek mythology, pays tribute to the goddess of knowledge and experience, information and understanding - a philosophy adopted by our winemakers and viticulturists when crafting this wine. Subtle notes of wild thyme and sage seamlessly blend with plum, fruit cake and brioche. The mid-palate suppleness and sweetness are already so enticing and sure to appeal to loyal followers of this wine. Recommended cellaring of 10 - 15 years from vintage.
