BREAK FREE LITTLE WING SHIRAZ NOIR CARBONIC

Five tonnes of Shiraz were selected from a single vineyard with one tonne picked ‘whole-bunch’, destined for carbonic maceration – the other four tonne was gently crushed, open fermented for ten days giving the juice extraordinary bright purple colour. Both parcels were then blended and pressed before being racked into older French oak hogsheads for malolactic fermentation and seven months maturation. 5% of single vineyard Adelaide Hills was also picked and fermented in stainless steel to retain and preserve the floral aromatics, colour and vibrancy – making up the final blend before bottling, with no further adjustment, filtration or fining. The Little Wing Shiraz Noir Carbonic is the ultimate summer mixup – vibrant, juicy and super fresh - you can even serve it chilled! Stacks of ripe supple cherries, plums and spice, lifted nuances of the carbonic gives exotic perfumes and interest to the palate…of which there is oodles of flavour from start to finish – the lip-smacking crunchy acidity is so refreshing, it’ll have you coming back for more.
