2022 Provenance Syrah

Vineyard Location

Estate grown, Hahndorf - Adelaide Hills

Season

A relatively wet start to the 2022 season with high rainfall in winter and full soil moisture profiles in spring. A very dry but unseasonably cool summer resulted in a long and steady ripening period across both whites and reds. This aided fruit intensity and flavour development whilst maintaining great natural acidity.

Vinification

An elegant cool-climate Syrah picked from one of the highest blocks on the estate, fruit is picked with a Selective Harvester and then fermented as both whole bunch and whole berries for 11 days. Wine is then pressed into a mixture of new and seasoned French oak and matures for 9 months.
