VINEYARD & WINEMAKING
Blackwood Valley Shiraz typically exhibits a compelling combination of liquorice, spice, pepper, black cherry and plum flavours. It is typically a more elegant, ‘food friendly’ style when compared with the better-known shiraz styles of South Australia.
This shiraz was picked and crushed to stainless steel tanks where it underwent a very gentle maceration over a two-week period. The must was then pressed and the wine transferred to oak (a combination of new and second use French oak barriques) for fourteen months before preparation for bottling.
THE WINE
The wine is a deep raspberry colour. The aromatics display notes of dark plum and charry oak with subtle cool climate spicy undertones and savoury notes. The palate is effortlessly smooth and displays black berry fruit characters flowing through to a subtle spicy finish balanced by ripe soft tannins leaving a surprisingly long finish.
