Patritti P Label Reserve Shiraz 2017 (12 x 750mL) McLaren Vale, SA

Description:

VINEYARD

The fruit for this wine is sourced from selected rows in the family’s own Blewitt Springs vineyard. Planted in 1960 the vineyard’s free draining sandy soil, mild to warm climate and high elevation create a site perfectly suited to growing premium low yielding Shiraz grapevines.

VINTAGE

A cool spring with high rainfall meant soils were wet and flower development delayed, the catalyst for a late vintage. Warm, dry conditions with a few bursts of heat through the ripening period and into autumn allowed fruit to develop full colour with good flavour characteristics.

VINIFICATION

Blocks from the Blewitt Springs vineyard were selected for their balanced freshness, intense flavour profile and tannin ripeness. The fruit was hand picked then crushed into small static fermenters. The juice remained on skins for seven days to extract the right balance of colour, flavour and tannin. The ferment was then transferred into new and seasoned American and French oak puncheons. After 18 months maturation the wine was bottled with minimal filtration.

Winery Tasting Notes

Notes Image

Dense, ink purple with a crimson hue, the highly expressive nose shows blackberry, dark plum and toasty vanillin oak. A densely packed palate of black fruits, licorice, dark chocolate and oak are perfectly balanced with mouth gripping tannins. This wine is full in the mouth and long in the finish.
