The Saxenburg Select Shiraz is a masterful wine with incredible terroir drive and is an authentic example of Saxenburg's excellent soils for producing top Shiraz. This high-dollar drop ensnares the nose with an expressive bouquet of cranberry, black pepper, ripe blueberries and a hint of dried herbs. The palate is concentrated and taut with a stunning structure and dense tannins. Well-integrated oak notes round out this special pleasure experience in a wonderful way. A wine that must be given time in the glass to fully develop its beauty and remarkable complexity.

Das handgelesene Traubengut fermentierte unter regelmäßigem Untertauchen des Tresterhuts und Umpumpen der Maische in offenen Gärtanks, um eine optimale Extraktion von Farbe, Tanninen und Aromen zu gewährleisten. Der Wein verbrachte 28 Tage auf der Haut und wurde anschließend ins Fass gepresst, wo er die malolaktische Fermentierung durchlief und drei Monate ohne Zugabe von Schwefel verbrachte. Nach Zugabe von SO2 reifte der Wein 24 Monate in französischen Eichenholzfässern mit einer Füllmenge von 300 l pro Fass (60 % Neuholz).
