The Syrah from the three regions (McLaren Vale, Adelaide Hills & Langhorne Creek) were individually refmented using natural yeast over a period of three weeks in open fermenters. 10% whole bunch fruit was included in the ferment to provide some ripe stalk tannin and a hint of carbonic maceration to the texture, aroma and flavour profile. Pressing was conducted using a small ½ tonne Mori basket press to give a soft tannin profile, hard pressings were not included. Maturation in 30% new French and 70% used French barriques provides a hint of savoury oak character whilst allowing the fruit characters to be expressed unhindered.
The Garden of Perfume and Spice provides an array of vibrant blueberry and forest fruits accented by notes of nutmeg, black pepper and lavender. The medium-bodied palate provides great depth and complexity of flavour with a silky tannin finish. Drink now to 2025, 300 cases made.
