Description

Viticulture
Navarino wines are grown in selected vineyards in the South and East of Australia, across some of Australia’s finest
regions. Careful management techniques are used to monitor every stage of growing in the clean environment of our regions. Traditional methods of growing are enhanced by modern practices to ensure Navarino Wines are consistent
and display the fresh fruit and lively varietal characters that we seek to see in Australian premium wines. Cropping levels are monitored to ensure that the vines produce smaller crops of more flavour some and better quality grapes.
Wine Making
Australia has became famous for production of high quality wines by developing and using modern winemaking techniques
to ensure grapes are handled gently and that the resulting wines retain maximum fruit freshness and character.
Navarino wines are fermented for a long period of ten days on skins while the fermentation is conducted. Close monitoring by winemakers and careful daily analysis ensures fermentation produces full bodied and flavoursome wines.
Careful maturation of the wine using American Oak achieves satisfying characters of toasted coconut that help build the wines structure.
Tasting note
With a dark red colour this Shiraz is abundant with black olives and redcurrant fruit that lead to an alluring toasted
coconut aroma. The wine is enriched with black cherry and plums which are balanced by the fine complex tannin finish
of black pepper and coconut from 12 months ageing with American Oak. An intense Shiraz that can be cellared up to 8 years.
