ABOUT THIS WINE
The Eperosa Magnolia Shiraz 2020 is a 100% Shiraz from the Barossa Valley, South Australia. It is produced by Eperosa, a winery founded by sixth-generation Barossa vigneron Brett Grocke, who champions organic and regenerative farming. The wine originates from the historic Magnolia vineyard in Vine Vale, planted in the 1890s, known for its old vines grown on deep granitic sands over clay soils. This vineyard's unique terroir and microclimate contribute to the wine's distinctive character, reflecting the producer's commitment to minimal intervention winemaking and capturing the essence of the land.

WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Eperosa Magnolia Shiraz 2020 is produced using 100% Shiraz grapes. The winemaking process emphasizes minimal intervention. Fruit is hand-harvested and sorted before undergoing open fermentation for three weeks. Following fermentation, the wine is aged for 20 months in seasoned French oak barrels, with gentle hand racking. The winery employs organic and regenerative farming practices, and its facility is off-grid and solar-powered. No fining or filtration is used.
