2014 Michael Hall Barossa Valley Shiraz, Stone Well

2014 Michael Hall Barossa Valley Shiraz, Stone Well

The Triangle Block vineyard lies in Stone Well on the eastern edge of the Seppeltsfield sub-region. It has a gentle northerly aspect and is coloured terracotta red by the distinct, iron-rich soils over clay found in parts of the northern and western ridge Barossa.

For wine nerds like me: Fair winter rains and a warm first week of September promoted early budburst. A hot summer was broken by rain mid-February and cool temperatures thereafter. Picked in 4th March, all destemmed, fermented in closed puncheon and open fermenter. Matured for 21 months in French oak (22% new), unfiltered.
