Waterford Estate Auction Reserve 2004
Shiraz 50%, Mourvedre 35%, Petit Verdot 10%, Barbera 5% The separate varieties were whole berry fermented on their own for 4 – 8 days on the skins, with gentle pump overs three times a day. The blend was made up after malolactic fermentation before the wine went into barrel. Barrel ageing took place in new, 2nd and 3rd fill barrels to achieve a more subtle tannin integration. Tasting note: Dense aroma of black fruit with hints of mocca and truffles. Rich flavour profile with soft juicy tannins that are well integrated to give an elegant long finish.
