TASTING NOTES

AROMA

A gorgeous bouquet of rich plum and black cherry with toasty spice and black olives.

PALATE

The palate is bursting with flavour, it is wonderfully smooth with soft velvety tannins.

REGION NOTES

We source a single vineyard in the Frankland River Region for this wine. This region is perfectly suited to producing many red and white varieties due to its continental climate combined with low vigour and moderate ripening conditions. We have chosen this particular vineyard for its ability to produce typical Frankland River Shiraz, which as a result of being a cool climate, is intense in colour with ripe flavours yet is elegant in style and structure.

CELLARING POTENTIAL

10+ years.

VINIFICATION

Hand-picked fruit is crushed and destemmed to static fermenters. Ferments are maintained at cool temperatures with minimal pump overs, to ensure delicate extraction of flavours and colour. The wine is on skins for up to one month and then pressed off to a mix of French oak barrels - forty percent in new and the remainder into second and third use oak for eighteen months barrel maturation.

Reviews:

James Suckling, JamesSuckling.com - 93 Pts

Brooding and intense with aromas of blackberries, dark plums, black olives, cracked pepper, iron and cured meats. The palate is full-bodied with densely packed tannins and a firm, textural mouthfeel. Powerful and savory with good structure and length. Drink or hold. Screw cap.

Stuart Knox, The Real Review - 92 Pts

Deep ruby red hue. Blackberry pastille and choc-mint aromas. Medium to full bodied with rich chocolate notes over ripe purple fruits. A touch of wakame adds savoury edge. Good length, tannins integrated, finishing dry but supple.
