Winemaking:  The fruit was handpicked and underwent a 10-day whole bunch maceration in stainless steel. It was then transferred into one 400L clay amphora were it spent almost a year resting. It was then transferred by gravity back to a stainless vessel which it was then bottled by hand from. At this time 15ppm so2 was added.  – winemaker notes

My favourite style of Syrah. Lively & bright up front with baking powder spice, finishing dark and slightly dusty. Give it a minute and let it show you how delicious the fruit is. Georgian style.
