100% of the fruit is sourced from our vineyards surrounding
our Cellar Door, grown using organic and biodynamic
practices. Hand picked by our loyal mailing list customers,
the Purple Hands crew, the majority of this wine comes from
our grafted Shiraz blocks, with the balance coming from the
older plantings of Shiraz on our vineyard.
Our Purple Hands crew hand pick the fruit into half-tonne
picking bins, then foot stomped the fruit to burst the berries
and encourage the natural fermentation to commence. 20%
of this wine was fermented as whole bunch in this way, with
the balance fermented on skins for 12 days in open top
fermenters. Basket pressed to French oak foudre &
seasoned puncheons for 12 months, before bottling with no
fining.
Bursting with blackcurrant and blueberries, this wine shows
the typical characters found in the Western side of the
Barossa- chocolate/mocha and black pepper, but with a
surprising freshness to the wine. Frankincense and
blackberries jump out of the glass, along with a slight
leafiness, which comes from the whole bunch component in
the wine. Soft and juicy on the palate, but with a backbone
of tannin from the whole bunches that draws the wine
across the palate giving it length and precision.
This is the eighth release of this basket pressed wine,
dedicated to our loyal mailing list customers. Starting very
early in the morning, our Purple Hands Crew handpick and
footstomp the whole bunch component of this elegant
styled Shiraz.
