Vigneron's Notes

The My Wyn Shiraz is hand-selected from 8 terraced rows at 400m on the Southern slope of the Franschhoek valley. The terraced ridge is West-facing, only being exposed to sunlight after Noon.

The grapes ripen slowly, maintaining their natural acidity.

Extended, temperature-controlled fermentation and maceration in open fermentors. Free-run and Lightly-pressed components are separated after 26 days and matured in 225L seasoned French oak barrels for 26 months.

These components were then selectively blended into this single-cultivar expression.
