Our Notes
A savoury and spicy Shiraz for those looking for more than just a fruit bomb. A liquorice note shines through the structure - would suit lasagna.
From the Winemaker
Cape Mentelle Shiraz takes inspiration from the most traditional techniques in order to highlight our ideal temperate, maritime climate for this classic Australian variety.
The fruit is partially destemmed, berry sorted, cold-soaked and traditionally fermented.
Maturation in small barriques is aimed at retaining the refined fruit and floral characters of the variety along with the more savoury, spicy elements derived from our vineyards in Margaret River.
