[SOLD-OUT] Bindi Pyrette Heathcote Shiraz 2009

Pyrette Heathcote Shiraz is sourced from an impeccably sited and managed vineyard near Colbinabbin on the Mount Camel Range. The specific parcel of vines this fruit comes from is at the highest block on deep red, rocky Cambrian soils on a cooler easterly facing slope. The picking date is carefully assessed in order to capture fruit vibrancy and freshness whilst capturing the typical mouthfilling richness and length of the region. The wine is made in 1000 litre open vats, fermented with ambient yeast and matured in French barrels, 20% new. The yield, harvest date and winemaking is deliberately aimed at producing a wine of regional authenticity in a style highlighting fragrance, vitality, finesse and harmony. This is the most fragrant and pure, and perhaps the most complex, of the nine vintages we have made from this excellent vineyard. The nose is bright in red fruits, creamy, earthy and has some darker fruit and exotic spice elements lurking. The palate is youthful, vigorous and has delicious creamy flavours with excellent weight, balance and length. It will improve further with four to five years cellaring though the balance is such that it is approachable now.
