2019 VINTAGE

Our philosophy is to craft single vineyard wines of great purity and character, reflective of our site and the season in which it was grown. It’s the attention and care in the vineyard that is most critical to allowing this expression.

The 2019 season was characterised by a warm and extended summer. The wines are intensely flavoured, yet poised and balanced, ensuring their longevity.

Winemaking

The fruit was handpicked and gently de-stemmed into traditional oak open fermenters. A small portion of whole bunches (20%). After 10-14 days on skins, the wine was pressed into tight grain 500L French oak puncheons for malolactic fermentation and maturation. The wine remained in oak for 11 months and was racked once during maturation. Bottled Feb 2020.

Tasting note

A perfumed and spicy Syrah, medium-bodied in style.  The palate is concentrated and silky, with finely structured tannins, bright fruit characters, wonderful elegance and depth.  Cellared carefully, this wine will age gracefully for ten years.
