Product information compiled from producer, importer and reference sources.
A full-bodied, yet restrained Shiraz offering ample depth with plenty of inky ripe forest fruits; blackberries, redcurrants and spice. The ripe fruit, fine tannins and savoury elements combine to produce a generous wine with a solid structure and a wonderful persistence of fruit.
WINEMAKING NOTES
The fruit was destemmed and then crushed with open rollers to introduce whole berries into the ferment. The core component was fermented in static fermenters at 26oC for 6 days (co- fermented with a small portion of Viognier to add spice and a floral lift to the wine).
A significant portion was fermented in open fermenters using wild yeast, adding a savoury element to the wine. The various batches underwent MLF and 14 months maturation in a selection of fine French oak barriques (40% new oak in total) prior to bottling.
