2004 Limited Two Shiraz - Basket Pressed

Limited Two is a reference to the best two barrels of our Shiraz for the vintage. We nurture the grapes from the vineyard with hand picking, open top fermentation and basket pressing.

Sub Region: Greenock

Appearance: Intense inky black, hues of dark purple

Aroma:  Complex rich varietal aromas of black pepper, dark fruits, plum jam, sarsaparilla, cedar with underlying nuances of dark liquorice and prune rounding off the nose.

Palate:  Limited Two Shiraz displays intense rich fruit concentration; almost treacle like.  Abundant plum, dark berries, anise and black pepper give rise to firm tannins and remarkable length to the lingering palate.  A Shiraz not for the faint hearted!

6 months in new  American oak followed by 21 months maturation in tight grain French oak leads to firm tannin structure. Superb fruit intensity will reward the drinker after 15+ years of careful cellaring.

Production:  60 cases

pH: 3.55

Acid: 7.2

Alcohol: 16%

Winemakers: Shawn Kalleske / Mick Schroeter
