Vinification 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.
