Season
Fresh early January rains prepared vines for what was to be a mild & then dry Riverina vintage which allowed for a wonderful expression of fruit aromas and flavours and allowed the retention of natural acid in most varieties. The King Valley experienced near perfect growing conditions with a warm season, dry Autumn and timely rainfall and likewise the Yarra Valley which produced wines with a good balance of flavour.
Appearance
Crimson with ruby hues.
Bouquet
Layers of ripe red fruits.
Palate
Shiraz and Tempranillo are awesome partners in this blend. The sweet spicy fruit power of Shiraz is rounded off by the savoury elements and rustic tannins from the Tempranillo supported by carefully integrated oak.
WINEMAKING
The Shiraz fruit was harvested when the balance of fruit freshness, ripeness and acidity reached their peak and the Tempranillo when the tannins were ripe giving structure to the wine. Fermented on skins for 5-7 days to maximise flavour, colour and tannin extraction. Blend is 80% Shiraz and 20% Tempranillo.
