Details
The grapes were in the winery within minutes of being picked, where they were immediately crushed and sent for fermentation in stainless steel tanks. The wine was fermented over ten days during which time the juice was mixed with the skins several times a day, this allows maximum colour extraction from the grapes. After pressing the wine was transferred to new American oak barrels were it remained for approximately one year.

Tasting Notes | Dark almost black in colour, the nose is intense with black fruit, plums, berries, liquorice, and pepper tones. The wine has soft integrated tannins and a long finish. Shiraz is a very concentrated wine with a long aging potential. |
Food Pairing | Enjoy with hearty meat meal such as stake or lamb. Alternatively the wine can be enjoyed on its own with or with a plate of cheeses. |
