Arenite Syrah

Syrah is best served with crispy duck and plum sauce of a large selection of fine charcuterie.

The wine is then matured in French oak barrels, with minimal new oak, for up to 17 months before blending and bottling.

The grapes are hand harvested in the morning. Approximately half the grapes are whole bunch fermented with fermentation lasting 10-12 days. The wines are pumped over three times a day with extended skin contact after fermentation for the whole bunch ferments. The grapes are pressed and racked to barrel.
