VINTAGE CONDITIONS

It has been noted as one of the best growing seasons in recent years, with a wet winter allowing the vines to produce a healthy canopy, and mild temperatures and periodic rain providing good growing conditions. Very little heat stress was experienced across the growing regions. A cool and dry summer sustained even ripening and allowed viticulturists and winemakers to harvest grapes at their optimum fruit expression.

WINEMAKING

The components of this blend were picked when the grapes were showing great fruit characters and processed separately in stainless steel fermenters, but always intended to be blended together to make a soft, light, expressive and generous Grenache, Shiraz & Malbec Blend. Following fermentation, the Free-Run and Pressings from the Grenache were kept separate to ensure only soft and supple tannins were extracted into the Free-run component. The blended wine has been matured on oak to give a background influence only.
