VINEYARDS

We source a single vineyard in the Frankland River Region for this wine. This region is perfectly suited to producing many red and white varieties due to its continental climate combined with low vigour and moderate ripening conditions. We have chosen this particular vineyard for its ability to produce typical Frankland River Shiraz, which as a result of being a cool climate, is intense in colour with ripe flavours yet is elegant in style and structure.

SEASON

Leading into 2022 we saw a cold wet winter, followed by a cool spring which resulted in good flowering and fruit set. The back end of the year warmed up and we then saw consistently warm, dry conditions which resulted in great vine growth and berry development.  The fruit harvested showed beautiful flavour, balance and ripeness.

WINEMAKING

Hand-picked fruit is crushed and destemmed to Static Fermenters. Ferments are maintained at cool temperatures with minimal pump overs, to ensure delicate extraction of flavours and colour. The wine is on skins for up to two weeks and then pressed off to French oak barrels.

Bursting with aromas of plum, spice cherry and jubes. The palate is smooth and approachable with soft, gentle tannins. Aged in French oak for twelve months. Easy-drinking and endlessly enjoyable.
