Chateau Tanunda 50 Year Old Vines' Shiraz 2014 750ml

Heritage

Cha teau Tanunda was established in 1890 and is the site of some of the first vines planted in the Barossa in

the 1840s as well as one of the Valley's first wineries. The 'Old Vines' series is all about showcasing the

significant history and special wine characteristics and of a selection of old vine vineyards for which the

Barossa valley is world famous. The Barossa Old Vines Charter was instituted to register vineyards by age, so

that older vines could be preserved, retained and promoted.

Vineyard

The grapes from this wine come from just two small vineyards in the Nuriootpa and Vine Vale sub-regions of

the Barossa. These low-yielding "Barossa Old Vines" were planted between 1960 and 1961 and are now fully

mature. They have a root structure and trunk thickness that encourage diversity of flavor and character. Their

worthiness has been proven over many vintages, consistently producing the highest quality fruit.

Winemaking

The grapes are destemmed, but not crushed, and spend seven days on their skins in open fermenters with

twice daily hand-plunging and pumping over of the cap to more gently extract colour, flavours and tannins.

This is followed by careful basket pressing and malolactic fermentation in a combination of new and seasoned

American and French oak prior to 24 months maturation in our cellars.

In keeping with our non-interventionalist winemaking style we neither fine nor filter this wine.
