Learn More About This Wine
In the 2022 vintage there is a blend of 44% Shiraz and 56% Cinsaut.Â
In the 2022 harvest, the Shiraz was picked earlier than usual, which resulted in a wine that is a bit lighter and more perfumy. It compliments the finer aromas of the Cinsaut and amplifies the freshness, adding great length.Â
The bush vine vineyards grow on the slopes of the Darling hills on sandy decomposed granite soils, 204 metres above sea level. Partially destemmed and whole bunches are spontaneously fermented in open top fermenters and remain on the skins for as long as possible. Aged in older oak for 8 months before being blended and bottled.
