Background
The 2015 Vintage had dryer than average conditions with mild days and cool nights, this resulted in a perfect slow ripening pattern for both red and white grape varieties with fantastic natural acid retention, concentrated colour, intense flavours and aromas while achieving perfect tannin ripeness. The 2015 Shiraz fruit was destemmed, chilled and transferred to closed fermenters for cold soaking with daily pumpover. After 5 days the must was allowed to warm and fermented over a ten day period with pumpovers twice daily. Some parcels were pressed early to retain vibrant fruit characters with other components being allowed a small degree of extended maceration on skins before pressing, allowing tannins to soften. The wine was matured with french oak contact, once correct balance was achieved the wine was blended, fined (egg) and bottled.
