Winemaking Details
This is one of Michael's moments - although the Hunter Valley is not renowned for it's fortifieds he thought he'd have a little fun seeing what he could craft. And we're so glad he did. This Tawny has an amazing following and we can hardly keep up with it's production.
Made from ripe Shiraz, the grapes are partially fermented before the fermenting juice is drained off the skins. The juice is then fortified using brandy spirit and filled into oak barrels. Here it matures for approximately seven years prior to bottling.
