Information about "Sijnn Low Profile 2022"
An enticing bouquet of fresh blueberry compote intermingles with elegant notes of rosemary and subtle hints of licorice and charcuterie, crafting a harmonious aroma profile. On the palate, the Sijnn Low Profile 2022 displays juiciness and energy, perfectly balanced with the fine flavors anticipated from the nose, culminating in a refreshing finish that lingers delightfully. Reflecting the meticulous effort by the Sijnn team, who excavated over 200 profile pits to identify the ideal vineyard locations, this wine embodies an unpretentious approach to winemaking.
The finale is characterized by long, dry, and smooth tannins, resulting in a vibrant and expressive blend consisting of 74% Syrah, 11% Grenache Noir, 6% Chenin Blanc, 5% Tinta Amarella, 3% Mourvèdre, and 1% Carignan.
Handpicked and sorted in small crates during the cool morning hours. Destemming and gentle pressing into small open fermentation tanks and oak barrels follow. Spontaneous fermentation with natural yeasts takes place. The skin maceration lasted 5–7 days, with the cap being punched down two to three times daily. After a single pressing in the traditional basket press and malolactic fermentation in barrels, the wine matured for over 20 months in older French oak barrels, with several racking to clarify the wine gradually. Bottling was done by hand, unrefined and unfiltered.
