Yangarra Estate Ironheart Shiraz 2021
Ironheart is the flagship Shiraz from Yangarra's single vineyard estate in Blewitt Springs at the northern edge of McLaren Vale. The vineyard’s northern aspect, higher elevation and sandy ironstone soils produce Shiraz with immense concentration and finesse.
Hand-picked (24th March), 25% whole bunches, and the remainder destemmed, mechanically berry sorted, and crushed. Open fermenters and on skins for approximately 21 days. A gentle maceration principle of wetting the cap and only draining and returning when reductive. Wild yeast ferment. No pressings are used in this wine. Matured in French oak for a total of 19 months. Kept on lees for 7 months in French oak puncheons (35% new) and then blended to a 2 year old Austrian and French oak foudre and further matured for 12 months. Bottled November 2022. Certified Organic/Biodynamic.
"...heady aromas of violets, licorice, charcuterie and boysenberries... a classy, polished shiraz with immense flavors and personality." 96 points - Ned Goodwin (JamesSuckling.com)
