Berton Wine Makers Reserve Shiraz
AA2274
Description
Deep ruby in colour with aromas of blueberry, black currant and pepper. The palate
is full flavoured and intense with black plum, blueberry and spice. The tannins are
ripe and dense giving great structure and length to the palate.
Winemaking
Above average rainfall early in the season made mildew control challenging,
however, a heat spike and the maritime cool evening winds gave way to a mild
extended ripening period, right through to harvest, giving us excellent quality and a
good-sized crop. Both Padthaway and Coonawarra fruit were machine harvested
during the cooler night conditions and transported in bins to our Yenda Winery. The
parcels were fermented in stainless steel vertical fermenters for 4-6 days between
26° and 30°. The wine was then bag pressed at 1 Baume and left to ferment until
dry, then racked onto French oak for malolactic fermentation. Wine was then
clarified via centrifuge into stainless steel storage. Once all parcels were completed,
blending trials gave us the final blend which we prepared for bottling.
