More Information

In the cellar

58% of the grapes were crushed and fermented in stainless steel tank with pumpovers multiple times daily. The remainder was fermented in small open-top vessels, each with a proportion of wholecluster (15% of the full volume of Shiraz) and manual punchdowns 3-5 times daily. After pressing, the Shiraz completed malolactic fermentation in tank.

In the vineyard

Grapes were hand-picked and sorted in the early morning at Cavalli in three separate pickings.

Ageing

Maturation took place initially in stainless steel for 6 months (with a very light addition of French oak staves for 4 months), and subsequently in 2nd, 3rd and 4th-fill 225L barrels for 5 months.

Cultivar
