Graham Beck Coastal Shiraz/Viognier 2002
95% Shiraz, 5% Viognier – Grapes were harvested together Northern-Rhone style and fermented dry on the skins during the punch-down period. Malolactic fermentation in tanks, after which the wine was pumped into small barrels for 13 months and then filtered and bottled. Tasting note: Prominent Shiraz character with spicy organic flavours. The addition of Viognier provides a slightly sweet dimension which lifts the Shiraz. Lots of fruit on the palate with a long aftertaste. Drink now to 2007.
