Distinctive aromas of ripe plum and pepper spices, mouth-filling sweet red-berry flavours and gentle tannins characterize this wine. A touch of Viognier was co-fermented with the Shiraz for the aromatic lift it gives to the wine, which emphasises the berry fruit and spice aromas on the nose. The American oak barrels give a hint of vanilla spice and contribute to the smooth silky tannins.

Winemaking
Hand-harvested grapes undergo a 2-day cold maceration. Fermentation occurs over 5 days in stainless steel tanks with regular pump-overs. Shiraz is co-fermented with a small bit of Viognier to enhance aromatics and soften tannins. After pressing, the wine undergoes malolactic fermentation in tank. 36% is aged in 225-liter oak barrels (8% new) for 12 months.
