Personalised Snake + Herring Blue Monday Grenache Mataro Shiraz 2018 14% 750ml

All components were pressed individually and pressings fractions separated. We barrel fermented all pressings fractions as well as the Pinot Gris free run in old 500L puncheons to add texture and volume. The free run components were fermented in tank. After 5 months on lees in both tank and barrel, the various components were reassembled, given a good talking too and sent on their way to bottle.

The Snake + Herring brand is a wine safari searching for remarkable grapes from West Australian Vineyards. The Search has begun, and our grape balloon manned by Snake (our winemaker) and Herring (our navigator) represent this. The southwest of WA is a viticultural treasure map as there are vineyard jewels scattered throughout. We seek for blocks within vineyards that really shine; they may seem dull when diluted by the bordering lesser dirt. The search is to find and polish these often overlooked gems and present a treasure chest of different jewels: pristine, crystalline Rieslings; crisp, radiant, multi-faceted Chardonnays; alluring, perfumed Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon; dark, exotic, hedonistic Shiraz; brilliant, regal displays of Cabernets and blends.
