Colour:Black to the core, magenta rimAroma:Notes of cherries plus chocolate, cedar, spice and scorched earth. Very seductive.Palate:Dense plums explode onto the palate with spice, subtle chocolate and tar. The fine tannin backbone rolls on and on from the mid palate, surrounded by fresh juiciness, dark fruit and subtle oak.Winemaking:De-stemmed, crushed and fermented in five, seven and ten tonne open top fermenters with three regular pump overs daily during peak fermentation to extract colour and tannin. Average time 'on skins' was 16 days, before the dry free run was drained to tank and the pressings combined. After 24 hours the wine was then racked to barrel. Malolactic fermentation took place in barrel, then racked off lees, tidied up and returned to oak. Minimal fining and unfiltered prior to bottling.Vintage specificationsGrape VarietySHIRAZ:Growing AreaBAROSSA VALLEY:cellar potentialThis is one for the cellar - drink 2013 to 2035Wine maker:Matt WenkClosure TypeCorkMaturationMatured for 20 months in French oak hogsheads: 15% new, 25% in 1 and 2 year old oak and the balance in 3 to 4 year old oakAlcohol %/vol15Vintage200920082007200620052004200320022001Tasting notes2010 Bella's Garden Tasting Note
