Product information "Kyburg Shiraz 2011"
The Kyburg Shiraz flows into the glass with a ruby red and richly concentrated colour and exudes a wonderful bouquet of wild berries, fragrant raspberries and a hint of black pepper, fine spices and oak vanilla. The palate is characterized by full-bodied length, intense expression and silky smooth tannins. The balance between acidity, fruit and tannin is remarkable. A thoroughly successful top representative of this noble grape variety!

The grapes for the Kyburg Shiraz were harvested by hand with great care and upon arrival in the cellar were subjected to a four-day cold soaking period. After pressing, fermentation took place in stainless steel tanks. After the fermentation was completed, the wine matured for 12 months in French barriques, of which 20% were new wood and 80% were second filled barrels.
