Information about "Stellenzicht Thunderstone Red 2019"
The Stellenzicht Thunderstone Red 2023 is an exciting composition of Cinsault, Syrah, and Cabernet Sauvignon. It enchants with an inviting bouquet of subtle perfume and complex aromas of red berry fruit, ripe cherries, and savory spices. On the palate, this delicious cuvée presents a medium body, remarkable freshness, and juicy red fruit that harmonizes beautifully with hints of sweet spices and silky tannins. Its balanced and smoothly soft finish resonates pleasantly.
Treatment in the cellar
The grapes are hand harvested in the morning.
Approximately 30% of the Shiraz grapes are either whole
bunch fermented or co-fermented with some added whole
bunches. The Cabernet Sauvignon and Cinsault remains
whole berry ferments. During the 7-10 days of
fermentation the wines are pumped over up to three times
a day. Some of the grapes receive extended skin contact
after fermentation before it is pressed and racked to barrel.
The wine is matured in French oak barrels for up to 18
months, before blending and bottling
