Production
The grapes are de-stemmed and pressed. Fermentation takes place in tank, preserving the juicy fruits, after which the wine is matured with an oak component for 4 months. This gives liquorice, spice and a little bit of ‘oompf ’ to an already delightful wine.
Tasting notes
Attractive dark scarlet in colour. The nose oozes bright violet and blackberry with a hint of toasted cedar oak. The palate has lots of ripe juicy fruit with more-ish sweet spice character. The finish is soft, subtle and embracing. A quintessential Shiraz, this is a ‘kick-back’ and relax kind of wine.
Food match
Roast beef, barbequed meats and succulent steaks... or oven-roasted vegetables if you prefer!
