Product Description:
The 2016 Eagles' Nest Shiraz has a brilliant ruby red colour. Perfume and floral notes harmoniously combine on the nose with red cherry and spice. These aromas lead gracefully to a savoury, spicy palate, with hints of star anise and clove. These flavours are complemented by pure, clean red fruit flavours. Soft, well-integrated tannins envelop the palate and lead to a distinct, fresh finish. A truly magnificent wine from maturing vineyards, that will age for up to 20 years post-vintage.

Vinifikation
The vineyard aspects range from East to North and are perfectly positioned for a cool climate Shiraz. All grapes were hand-harvested, destemmed, and pressed into medium-sized open fermenters. Pump-overs were performed three to four times daily. Fermentation lasted 10 days, after which the free-run wine was drained and the skins pressed. The wine was then transferred into French oak barrels. After 18 months in barrel (35% new), selected components of the wine were blended to create a complex and harmonious final product.
