Palate: The mouthfeel is full and rich yet beautifully rounded with soft, fine tannins. Whilst very pleasant to drink when young it will improve in the bottle for 5+ years. Overall Impression: Australia has certainly made Syrah its own, even bestowing it with a new name: Shiraz. In the warm, dry climate of Australia this noble grape, responsible for some of the grandest wines of France, produces an intense, unique expression that is distinctly Australian. The ripe grapes take on classic notes of black pepper and leather that add depth and complexity to the black cherry and plum fruits on the palate. Australian Shiraz has typically been aged in American Oak barrels which impart the wine with a distinct note of vanilla that can add to the impression of ripeness many of these wines have, but the time in barrel also allows the wines a chance to settle and reveal their rich, voluptuously styled mouthfeel. Oaking: The Shiraz and Cabernet are fermented on skins separately in open tanks for 8 - 10 days at a controlled temperature of 20 to 26 C until there is sufficient colour and tannin for this wine style. No sulphur is added in the wine making process until wine has undergone malolactic fermentation for greater natural colour and tannin development. The wine is then drained and pressed before being transferred to French and American oak for maturation. A further 6 months in oak maturation balances the wines fruit with soft integrated tannins.
