2018 JC’s Own Greenock Shiraz

Single vineyard Greenock Shiraz , strong but sensual. I like shiraz that is big on fruit intensity but is more supple and svelte on the palate, powerful yet velvety, structured but sensual - I could go on but I think i’ve conveyed my point.

East facing slope on the outskirts of the township,heavy red clays restricting yield and berry size, undervine mulching for water conservation.

100% destemmed into an open fermenter, wild yeast, combination of délestage and plunging over two to three weeks. Aged on lees in new and seasoned French barriques for eighteen months. Bottled without fining or filtration.
