Winery/Brand: Temple Bruer

 

Rich with plums, cherries and blackberries this wine offers a full gentle palate of great length and complexity. It is dominantly fruit driven with an essence of spice and dashes of cinnamon, chocolate and vanilla. The wine has a strong finish of toasty mocha coffee.

 

 

The Story

The berries crushed to produce this wine were sourced from Temple Bruer’s certified organic vineyard in Langhorne Creek. The dry season unfortunately yielded low tonnes, however the fruit picked was packed full of rich flavours.

The Shiraz and Malbec musts were co-fermented within the temperature range of 19-22 deg C. The cap was regularly pumped over to extract maximum flavour. The wine was pressed at 2.4 deg Be` and all the pressings were included with the free-run wine. Following fermentation, the wine was racked and underwent a malolactic fermentation. The wine was sterile filtered on bottling.
