Vintage conditions

Cool climate Shiraz parcels were selected predominantly from the Bird in Hand Estate in Woodside.
Vinification details
Minimal intervention winemaking at the heart of this Syrah, with quality the absolute focus, bunches were handpicked and gently destemmed at harvest. Each parcel was fermented separately with a significant component of whole bunches included in each fermenter. All batches were wild fermented, which occurs in small open top fermenters, spending 10 days on skins. The wine was barrel fermented for 16 months in large format tight grained French oak barrels (25% new oak)
