WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Logan Weemala Shiraz is produced by Logan Wines, with grapes sourced from the Mudgee and Orange regions in New South Wales. A defining characteristic of its winemaking is the co-fermentation of Shiraz with a small percentage of Viognier. This process allows the white Viognier juice to integrate with the red Shiraz during fermentation, aiming to enhance the wine's complexity and mouthfeel. The winery's philosophy, led by Peter Logan, focuses on creating wines that balance Australian fruit-forward qualities with Old-World elegance, often through unconventional approaches. The wine is sealed with a screw cap and is generally considered vegan-friendly.
