Black almost impenetrable in colour. All consuming aroma of sweet ripe plums, blackberry, pepper and spice, supported by some elegant and French oak notes. Mouth filling flavours consume you as this wine is highly varietal yet complex with sweet ripe plums, blackberry and have hints of spice and mint. These characteristics are hallmarks of Wrattonbully and are why the region is now so highly renowned.
Shiraz fruit from a Single Vineyard in the Wrattonbully sub region of the Limestone Coast was sourced to produce this wine. The fermentation of this wine was conventional and classic, with the fermenting juice kept “on skins” for just over 9 days to maximise colour and avour extraction. The skins were then pressed gently and the pressings pumped back with the free-run. The wine was then fermented out slowly over 5 days, allowed to settle and then racked off lees. Malolactic fermentation the ensued and the components were pumped directly to barrel. The malolactic ferment then proceeded steadily. The wine was aged in a combination of new, one year old and two year old French oak. The wine was finally blended and prepared for bottling following extended maturation.
