Lifted mulberry fruit aromas with hints of mocha and sweet vanilla.
100% Shiraz
The wines were fermented on skins to dryness at a maximum of 28°C and pressed after 14 days. The wine was racked to barrel for MLF and was then matured for 10 months in 15% new oak barriques, predominantly French, though with a small proportion of American oak. A wine with intense berry flavour; soft, juicy tannins and finishing with the delicate floral and spice perfumes that cool climate Shiraz is known for.
The palate is soft and juicy with flavours of dark plum and cherry, finishing with fine tannins and subtle creamy oak.
Separate blocks of Shiraz from our Summus Vineyard, our Cellar Door Vineyard (Yallingup) and Carbunup River vineyards were destemmed (not crushed) and transferred to static tanks and inoculated immediately with a yeast strain isolated from the Cotes du Rhone. Each tank was pumped over twice daily using a Turbopigeur - a red fermentation pump designed in France that floods the cap with a very gentle pumping action.
