Bursting with aromatic complexity, this Syrah offers notes of bright red fruits, with floral nuances, and subtle earthy undertones. The silky palate layers juicy raspberry with a hint of pepper.
Winemaking The destemmed and carefully sorted berries were transferred to open-top fermenters, where daily punch downs took place by hand. Fermentation on the skins lasted for 1421 days before being pressed with basket press to barrel. The wine underwent 100% malolactic conversion in barrel, rounding out the palate. Maturation lasted for 18 months in 228, 300 and 500-litre barrels, of which 28% were new oak. 7% whole-bunch carbonic fermentation Shiraz was blended for further complexity.
A Syrah bursting with aromatic complexity, offering notes of bright red fruit, floral nuances, and subtle earthy undertones. The silky palate is full of juicy raspberry and cranberry, seamlessly intertwined with a hint of pepper. Polished and refreshing, through to a well-balanced, enduring finish.
