Allevare Metcalfe Shiraz 2021
All grapes are hand-picked from a single vineyard premium site. This wine has 11% wholebunch, fermented on skins and pressed to french oak with 20% new oak.
Complex, savoury tannins build a long, spicy and complete mouthful of flavours. With a beautiful minerality to create a fresh finish.
Grown in Beechworth, 6.5km from the main township. 400m+ elevation, the soil is 450 million year old granitic loam over decomposed gravel and clay. The clay is important in allowing sustained water-release to the vine roots; while the soil, being not too rich, is ideal for wine quality - lower yields are naturally regulated.
