Rockcliffe Third Reef -Shiraz 2017

Description

(100% Shiraz) cases. The fruit was machine picked then destemmed/crushed int0 small open fermenters and inoculated. The fermenters were pumped over with aeration twice a day, temperature was held around 25°C, then allowed to warm up for a long maceration. The wine was then transferred in barrel for malo-lactic fermentation, allowing a soft integration
of the grape and oak tannins. The wine was fined then bottled. 95 Points-James Halliday
