The 2006 vintage started with careful selection of our fruit and picking at the winemakers preferred flavours. Ferment took place in open fermenters at controlled temperature for six days. The wine was placed in a combination of both French and American oak hogsheads, with 10% new oak for maturing. After 20 month in oak we tasted 43 barrels selecting the best barrel of each variety to create this Reserve. In the lab we carefully blended different percentages of variety before selecting what our winemaker Charlie considered to be the optimum and the family giving the nod. The blend is 75% Shiraz 15% Cabernet Sauvignon 10% Merlot.
