Lutzville Shiraz Dry Red 750ml

Description

Grapes for this Shiraz come from selected vineyard blocks in the warmer region of the Lutzville Valley. Shiraz can handle heat and this extra warmth help to develop the full bodied flavours. After the grapes has been carefully harvested at optimum ripeness. The grapes are gently pressed and only the free run juice is used. Using selected yeasts, fermentation takes place at between 18° – 22° for two weeks. Due to the depth of flavor, our Shiraz requires less oak treatment compared to other grape varieties and matures on French oak staves for 3 months to improve body and texture.
