An artfully assembled cépage of pure Pyrenees Shiraz with judicious inclusions of locally grown Merlot and Viognier. Parcels are harvested from low yielding, weather exposed vines, stimlated by the challenging climes to yield fruit of amazing intensity, refined tannins and powerful structure. The aim is to infuse added softness, texture and complexity to a wine of pristine regional and varietal characters. Bunches are pressed and held for a term of cold soak, treated to a traditional vinification and macerations, followed by transfer to a selection of seasoned and new, French and American oak barriques for a course of eighteen months maturation. Alcohol 14.4%
