Description
The Syrah was sourced from Margaret River and the Pinot Noir from Pemberton. The Syrah was left on skins for 18 hours before being pressed over chardonnay skins and then to neutral oak barriques. Fermentation was 10 days with wild yeasts and left on solids until final blending. The Pinot Noir was left as whole bunches to support a full carbonic maceration. The whole bunches were foot stomped to allow for a gentle maceration. Once carbonic maceration was well underway the fruit was crushed and destemmed to allow a wild ferment in open top fermenters. After 14 days, the Pinot Noir was pressed off into stainless steel tanks after undergoing malo-lactic fermentation. Both components were blended and the wine racked three times to remove as much of the solids as possible. The wine is unfined, unfiltered and natural.

As consultant winemaker, Liv Maiorana has added some pizazz and an exciting new direction to Peacetree. This unusual varietal mix falls into the light 'chillable' red category, but has the sensibilities of serious flavoursome rose (Tavel, not Provence). Aromas of candied strawbwrry, raspberry dust and mint. vibrant flavours, super-fine tannins like veneer to the palate keep this long and taut. Zippy, fresh, punchy berry fruit. Made for drinking not thinking.
