NEBBIOLO

Perfume and cherries
Grippy and persistent
Noble red variety originally from Piedmont in Italy

Intensely floral and aromatic the palate has juicy red cherries, cranberry with undertones of savoury spice and tar, dried herbs and red liquorice. The wine has classic, grippy nebbiolo tannin and a long structured finish.

DOWNLOAD TASTING NOTES

The fruit was harvested in early April and was destemmed and vinified in open fermenters with hand plunging. Separated in three batches, each was macerated on skins for 20 days, 2 months, and 3 months respectively to build texture and tannin before pressing off for the final blend.
The wine was then racked to barrel for a further 12 months maturation in predominantly seasoned French oak puncheons.

THE REGION

Pyrenees

Set among rugged hills in the central west of the state, this region is known for premium Shiraz wines.

Vines were first planted after gold was discovered in 1854 but the modern wine industry dates from the 1960s. Wines typically have a note of peppery spice that is distinctive and sets the region apart from other hotter Shiraz regions.
