2016 Barossa Shiraz
We focus on perfecting and specialising in our Barossa Valley Shiraz. A subtle full-bodied wine; fine balance of ripe fruit, spice and texture, lingering on the pallet indefinitely.
TASTING
Our wine holds an aroma of ripe black berry fruits and dense figs, carrying an artful undertone of toasty sweetness. It brings a palate that is full with silky yet firm tannins, offering more fruit than oak. The roundness of this palate carries full and intense dark fruits with an underlying cherry mocha character.
VITICULTURE
Our fruits are sourced from the Manaranga sub-region of the Barossa Valley; the fruits hand-picked and transferred to the winery.
WINEMAKING
The process of our wine-making focuses on quality. Small intense batches of fruit are crushed and macerated over a fifteen-day period, using gentle pump-overs to limit the over-extraction of intense tannins. After 15 days the wine is then gently pressed to a 2500 litre French Oak Feeder. The wine will then continue to mature in these vessels for 38 months.
