Details
Description:
This splendidly fruited and fragrant wine features dark plum, blueberry, rich floral, and hazelnut notes on the nose. The palate is succulent and silky, with bright fruit flavours that make it delightfully drinkable. At its best from now until 2029.
Tasting Notes:
Colour: Rich, intense purple.
Aroma: Cherries, ripe raspberry, subtle spice, and vanilla.
Palate: Spice fruit flavours and deft oak create a wine of great enjoyment and balance.
Vineyard:
Grapes were sourced from a careful selection of low-interventionist vineyards across the stunning McLaren Vale region, from Blewitt Springs and Seaview in the North through to Willunga and Sellicks Hill in the South. The range of sites varies greatly in soil, aspect, and vine age, creating a complex wine that reflects the true, rich character of McLaren Vale Shiraz.
Winemaking:
The grapes are brought into the Vintage House, the oldest part of our winery, and crushed into 70-year-old concrete vats, where Indigenous “wild” yeasts found on the grape skins initiate fermentation. Careful extraction and short post-fermentation maceration are followed by pressing. The resultant wine is transferred to American oak, where malolactic fermentation is completed before racking and maturation for 9 months. A careful assemblage is followed by minimal filtration and bottling.
