Multiple Regions
Julie Mortlock
Medium tawny colour with lifted aromas of ripe dark fruit and nuts with barrel aged characters. Wonderfully integrated fruit, almond, chocolate and nutty flavours together with barrel aged characters combine to give a persistent flavoursome palate.
Predominately Shiraz and Grenache fruit is allowed to stay on the vine until very ripe when the concentration of flavours has developed. After crushing and partial fermentation to retain some sweetness, the wine is pressed and then fortified with a neutral spirit prior to maturation in small and large format oak casks.
Alc/Vol: 18.5 % pH: 3.56 TA: 6.0 g/L
The wine has been aged in barrel and is designed for current consumption but will keep in the bottle for several years.
Enjoy after a meal with a platter of cheeses, dried fruit and nuts.
