2021 One Mad Moment Six Pack
VINTAGE: 2021
VARIETIES: Shiraz (65 year old dry grown vines) and Grenache (95 year old dry grown vines)
OAK: 7 year old American oak
WINEMAKING: Both picked two days apart in mid March. The shiraz was crushed and de-stemmed, fermented on skins for 9 days and pumped over twice a day. This extracted maximum colour and flavour. The grenache had a gentler ride, soft pressed, fermented on skins for 8 days and stored in old oak)
AREA: Blewitt Springs and McLaren Flat
TASTING NOTES: This is the sixth release of this wine drawing shiraz from our Blewitt Springs vineyard sitting on sandy soil offering excellent drainage and resistance to disease and parcels bought in from a wonderful 95 year old Grenache vineyard in McLaren Flat. The vines are 65 and 95 years old respectively producing fruit of uncommon intensity and flavour. 2021 was one the best vintages ever in The ‘Vales which gave us an excellent pool of fruit to work with. This wine is flavoursome showing chocolate, spice and a sweet earthy palate finishing with powdery tannins and length. Enjoy now or cellar up to 10 years.
