Tokar Estate Yarra Valley Shiraz 2019
Grape Varietals & Region: 100% Shiraz from the Yarra Valley in Victoria, Australia. Coming from a four acre Shiraz block planted in 1997, the vines are mature and deep rooted, planted in grey clay soil dotted with ironstone and mudstone pebbles
Taste Profile: The colour is deep ruby and bright with a purple tinge. There’s a savoury, almost meaty (Bresaola) note upon first opening but this gives way to the aromas of fresh raspberries, bay leaves, olive brine and pepper. The palate is mouth-filling, elegant and bright fruited with flavours of red liquorice and blueberries before finishing with a little char. Great drinking now but could be cellared for another 5+ years.
Winemaking Process: Half was fermented as whole bunches (carbonic maceration) using wild yeasts and the other half was destemmed and fermented with a yeast that enhances bright red fruit character. The warm spice aromas of the ferments were intoxicating! Once the tannins reached a balance with the fruit, the musts were pressed off to old 500L French oak barrels. A slow, wild malolactic fermentation over the cold winter followed and the wine was then prepared for bottling whilst still vibrant. The wine was bottled without filtration in January 2020.
