Description
Syrah has an important place in the Australian wine landscape and Longview delivers medium bodied wines with spice and interest. Sourced from Blocks 2, 3 and 15, these stony blocks produce intense aromatics and flavour, with excellent fine tannins. Careful fruit selection ensures we capture fruit flavour with varietal distinction. Destemmed to open fermenters with 15- 20% whole bunch, for a short soak with fermentation for 9-12 days. A small portion of 100% whole bunch undergoes 10 days carbonic maceration, followed by destemming and finishing as a normal fermentation prior to blending, Drained & pressed to French oak puncheons (15% new) for maturation.
