Vine to Wine

Early morning handpicked Shiraz grapes were brought to the winery and then pressed immediately so as to not extract too much colour or tannin from the skins.
The juice was settled for a few days to clarify, before being inoculated with an aromatic yeast strain to express the berry and floral notes of the juice. Fermentation took about 14 days to complete, and the wine was racked and sulphured straight away to keep it light and refreshing. 2.5gms of residual sugar added just prior to bottling to maintain dry structure but round off mid palate acid.
