Tellurian 2019 Sommet Shiraz


The Sommet Shiraz is a single block wine produced from a very small, high density block, planted at Tellurian on the ridgeline of the Mount Camel range. 

VINEYARD

The Sommet shiraz block is a small 0.6ha block, consisting of 35 rows, and 5000 vines. This close planted block was configured with 1.6m row spacings and 0.75m between each vine. This block was planted at the most elevated point of our vineyard, on a steep south/west facing slope below the ridgeline of the Mount Camel range, on deep Cambrian era decomposed greenstone rock formed over 500 million years. 

WINEMAKING

Fermented in small open fermenters with 10% fermented as whole bunches. 18 days on skins. Pressed to 1-2 year old 600L demi-muids and barriques. The wine remained in barrel for 8 months prior to bottling.
