Mystery McLaren Vale Shiraz 2023 (6x 750mL) SA

Each parcel of fruit was picked and fermented separately to allow for tailored blending prior to bottling.

The ferments were carried out in stainless steel open fermenters with gentle pump overs and plunging for cap management. After 10-14 days on skins, wines were basket pressed to stainless steel tanks to complete alcoholic fermentation..

The growing season of 2023 which was a mild very mild, but also dry, summer/autumn followed – meaning there was low disease pressure over a very gentle and extended ripening period.
