Description
The Shiraz vineyards at Maranagna intended for this blend are picked early whilst encouraging opulent flavour accumulation. 30% of the fruit is fermented as whole bunch in open top fermenters. Oak maturation occurs for 12 month in only puncheons and hogsheads with 20% new French oak.
The wines produced from the vintage of 2014 are excellent. The weather conditions during spring and early summer were dry and above average heat degree-days regulated shoot growth and berry development. By mid February and well into veraison, soil moisture levels were extremely low but a record-breaking rain event replenished the soils. The weather conditions that followed were ideal. ‘Balanced’ probably best describes most wines from the harvest this year.
