Peaceful Bay-Shiraz

Description

(100% Shiraz)-The 2017 Shiraz was machine harvested then destemmed/ crushed into 8 tonne fermenters where it was old soaked to extract and retain desirable varietal flavour and aromas. The fermenters were pumped over with aeration twice a day, temperature was held around 25°C to prevent over extraction of tannins locked in the skins. Maceration was not extended due to the same reason. The wine was then transferred to barrel for malolactic fermentation allowing a soft integration of the grape and Oak tannins. The wine was fined with egg whites then bottled after 12
months maturation.
