Production Notes

Description

Black plum and bramble fruit with complex chocolate and spiced oak

Great wine does take time, and The Brothers Shiraz has certainly taken a long time in the making. Tended by hand from vine to barrel to bottle, this is the pinnacle of our endeavours and the ultimate expression of Rutherglen Shiraz

Winemaker Notes

This vintage of The Brothers Shiraz has undergone extended maturation in both barrel and bottle prior to release. This time has allowed the fruit, oak and tannins to fully integrate and deliver a truly memorable Rutherglen Shiraz. After fermentation for ten days using closed fermenters, the wine was aged in French oak puncheons for a period of 2.5 years.

Tasting Notes

Full bodied and velvety smooth with black plum and bramble fruit, integrated nutty oak with a touch of earth and spice. The fine grippy tannins providing complexed balance and length. An aged wine whose raw powerful youth has given way to a more restrained and elegant maturity.

Cellaring & Serving Suggestions
