Corryton Burge Shiraz 2022

Deep ruby red with purple hues, strawberry, raspberry and vanilla aromas. Rich fruit forward characters of raspberry and plums tantalise the palate. There is a soft toasty oak influence that enhances the vanilla and spice. Subtle tannins leave the palate quite moreish and a delight to keep coming back to. Timely rain and an Indian Summer slowed the pace of ripening allowing flavours and tannin structure to develop. The resulting harvest meant smaller berries of intense flavour and colour, along with excellent tannins and natural acidity. 7-10 day fermentation in stainless steel fermenters, temperature range between 22-28°C. Fermenters are pumped over routinely 6 times a day. Matured in oak for a minimum of 12 months. Pair with a grilled butterflied lamb leg with Moroccan inspired cous cous. Drink now - 5 years
