The blending of Shiraz and Viognier originates in the Northern Rhone region in France. The technique of picking and co-fermenting a small proportion of Viognier (white) with the Shiraz increases the aromatics and richness of the Shiraz fruit, whilst seamlessly introducing a subtly spice twist to freshen up the finish, are the reasons for this style.
Vintage 2007 followed on from an extremely dry growing season. This drought presented a number of viticultural challenges, with localised spring frosts causing the greatest concern. The already very low bunch numbers and very small berry size were reduced even further due to the severe frosts. This, combined with higher than average temperatures, caused the grapes to ripen nearly a month earlier than usual. The end result has been a wide range of fruit styles and flavours and a challenging year for the grape grower and the winemaker.
This is the second successive vintage of the Hand Picked Shiraz Viognier where they began utilising the skins only of the Viognier grapes in addition to the traditional method of co-fermenting select parcels of both Shiraz and Viognier grapes together. The skins on their own can often provide even more powerful aroma and texture and this helps create another dimension of flavour and complexity to this wine. This Shiraz Vigonier wine is full depth red in colour with purple hues, and shows briar and violets, mocha coffee, cedar, anise and a subtle Viognier fragrance. The palate is medium to full-bodied, and has a spicy and savoury texture which finishes with seamless powdery tannins.
