Previously known as Graillot No 2 this is a wine that reflects continued desire to produce wines of great finesse from a region historically known for powerhouse reds.
The Syrah No. 2 comes mostly from short- and medium-length macerations (one to two weeks) and is made with 100% whole-cluster, natural yeast fermentations and no sulphur additions until well after malolactic. Bottling occurred after 12 months aging in neutral oak and in a range of different formats: 1000lt, 2000lt, barriques, 500lt and 600lt.
The result is a spicy, medium-bodied Syrah, closer in weight to many Northern Rhône wines than what we typically expect from Heathcote. It offers loads of spice, energy and drive, and the complex aromas and flavours of dark plum, olive, bay leaf and tobacco.
Organic vineyard practice. 12.4% alc/vol.
