Generous in fruit yet defined by beautifully ripe skin tannins, the palate is seamless and exudes a sense of restrained power. This is a classic cool-climate Shiraz crafted in the Syrah style, layered with black olive notes and a tapestry of spice.

WINEMAKING NOTES

Hand harvested fruit was meticulously sorted before destemming into 2 tonne open fermenters. The grapes were allowed to soak before the onset of wild ferment. Following fermentation and a post ferment maceration period (21 days on skins in total), the wine was pressed and transferred to French oak barriques (22% new) for natural malolactic fermentation, followed by 11 months maturation prior to bottling.
