- Gemini is the project of up-and-coming winemaker Simon Amber, whose thoughtful and patient approach to his craft is really starting to pay off with this current set of releases! Leda is one of 4 cuvees from the second release from Gemini, and is named after a Spartan queen and mother of the twins Castor and Pollux.
This intriguing (and truly delicious) blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Sauvignon Blanc came about when Simon had a barrel of each that didn't seem to make sense on their own, but made perfect sense when blended together! This is a beautifully savoury wine with a couple of years age on it. There's still beautiful almost tart fruit character there, and it's an absolute gem: smashable but so nicely structured and unique! Gemini is one producer to try now and watch out for in the next few years!
