McGuigan Estate Shiraz 2018 (6x 750mL) SEA

Description:

VINTAGE CONDITIONS

The fruit was machine harvested and selected from vineyards in the Riverland and Murray Darling - NSW regions. Conditions for vintage were ideal, yields were good and the fruit was in excellent condition. The climate is hot with high evaporation rates and generally low rainfall, making irrigation essential. The climate is also continental, resulting in long sunny days and noticeably cooler nights. Modern viticultural and winemaking techniques mean that the climate can be seen as one of the region's strengths. Long sunshine hours ensure fruit ripens fully and low relative humidity results in little incidence of disease.

WINEMAKING

The fruit was crushed and de-stemmed, then fermented on oak chips at cooler temperature of 18 – 22°C for 5 – 7 days to ensure varietal character is retained during fermentation. During fermentation the wine is pumped over daily to extract the ideal amount of flavour, colour and tannin. Post fermentation the wine is matured in stainless steel tanks with components spending time on oak.
