Information about "Black Elephant Vintners The Back Roads Petite Sirah 2019"

The Black Elephant Vintners The Back Roads Petite Sirah presents itself with a powerful bouquet of black currants, pepper and tobacco leaves. Dense and lush on the palate, it indulges with intense nuances of dark chocolate, dark fruit, crushed pepper and cassis, as well as excellent tannin structure and lively acidity.

The grapes for The Back Roads Petite Sirah were selected from a single vineyard that thrives on the slopes from the mountain "Matoppie" in the Franschhoek Valley on decomposed Table Mountain sandstone. A true rarity!

Treatment in the cellar

Das handgelesene Traubengut wurde als ganze Beere sowie zu 30 % am ganzen Bund vergoren. Die Fermentierung bei einer maximalen Temperatur von 28°C dauerte 7 -12 Tage an. Nach Abschluss der Fermentierung ging es in die traditionelle Korbpresse, von der der Wein direkt ins Fass gelassen wurde, wo die malolaktische Gärung ihren Abschluss fand. Anschließend reifte der Wein 24 Monate lang in zuvor belegten französischen Barriques und wurde nach Beendigung der Reifung ungeschönt und lediglich leicht gefiltert auf die Flasche gefüllt.
