| Our meal suggestions: | Pairs beautifully with beef, lamb, so try dishes like a pepper crusted sirloin steak 28 day aged tomahawk steak |
| The wine itself: | Savoury and complex, the wine shows white pepper and cranberries on the nose that opens to floral perfume and blackberry fruit. The savoury spice continues to the palate with a red fruit core and a fine peppery tannin. |
| What about the grapes? | 100% Syrah |
| And the vineyards (terroir): | South-Westerly facing slopes ranging in altitude from 230-250m above sea level on decomposed granite soils. The vines are trellised on a seven-wire hedge system and we yield approximately eight tons per hectare. |
| How was it made: | The grapes were harvested at just over 23 Balling to capture the pepper spice that typifies the varietal. The fermentation temperature peaked at 28°C with regular pump-overs to ensure even extraction and a 30% portion was fermented with 25% whole bunches. The wine was matured for 12 months in 500l French oak barrels, with 20% new oak. |
