6 x Fidium Shiraz 2023
Fidium Shiraz 2023
Deep red with a violet hue. Choc-cherry with a hint of baking spice dominates the nose of this generous and complex Shiraz.
The fruit was selectively harvested in the cool hours of the early morning. Upon arrival
at the winery, the fruit was delicately crushed into static fermenters, with many whole
berries still intact. The must was cold-soaked for 48 hours prior to fermentation and
inoculated with cultured yeast. Pump-overs were performed twice daily for aeration
and to extract colour, flavour and tannins. The wine was pressed once close to dry to
ensure no over-extraction of tannins. After pressing, the wine was racked into French
oak barriques, where it matured gracefully until late August 2024. Individual barrels
were selected by taste for the final blend.
