Producer Info
The Malbec and Shiraz grapes are harvested by machine in the cool of the evening. After de-stemming and crushing the juice is cooled to drop any solids, before fermenting on skins at a warm 25 degrees for around 3 weeks with regular spraying over and immersion of the skin cap to extract more tannins, colour and phenolic flavours. After fermentation the wine is racked several times into tanks to clear the lees with a final light filtration prior to bottling. No oak is used to maximise the ripe red and black fruit characters.
