[SOLD-OUT] SC Pannell Koomilya Shiraz 2015

Jamie Goode 95 Points!

A blend of three Koomilya Shiraz blocks, the majority of which is sourced from Shiraz grafted on Gewürztraminer, the GT Block. This block was planted in 1970, and grafted in the early 1990s. The remaining Shiraz was sourced from the Mulberry Block & Spider Block, planted in the early 2000s with clones sourced from 130+ year old Hardy Shiraz (Upper Tintara), the neighbouring vineyard. Hand harvested between 9th and 11th February. The fruit spent 19 days on skins in open top-fermenters, before being pressed off, with the hard pressings removed. The wine was naturally fermented, which is the key to this style, giving greater complexity. Transferred to stainless steel tank for 28 days, then racked into two 2500-litre French vats where it undertook malolactic conversion and maturation. Bottled on 8th June 2016, after spending a total of 12 months in oak. Alcohol 13.2%; pH 3.8; total acidity 6.2g/L.

"Concentrated, pure and fine with lovey raspberry and black cherry fruit. Structured and very fine. Backward and tannic but pure and primary with lots of finesse, even though there’s good structure here and some floral perfume even at this early age. Thrilling wine. 95 points."
