Luddite The Monster Shiraz-Cabernet Sauvignon 2012

Crushed, destalked and fermented in small open fermenters. Punched down twice daily during fermentation. Pressed and racked directly into barrel. Malolactic fermentation in barrel and 2 years in 50% new French oak, with the balance in second and 3rd fill French wood. We blended in 14% Cabernet Sauvignon to add structure, backbone and balance to the juicy Shiraz fruit.
