WINE MAKING PROCESS

The wine undergoes unoaked aging, which preserves the fruit-forward character of the Shiraz. The winemaking philosophy prioritizes consistency and approachability, aiming to create a wine that is enjoyable for a broad range of consumers. The 2023 vintage was influenced by a difficult growing season characterized by a cold and wet winter and spring, resulting in reduced grape yields.
