The Syrah fruit was hand harvested in two phases during April 2004. The fruit was destemmed and fermentation was carried out in small open top vessels. The skins were hand plunged during fermentation. The wine was pressed off at dryness and malolactic fermentation occurred in barrel. The 2004 Syrah was in barrel for 18 months: 100% new French Burgundy barrels

The wine has possessed an “x” factor since fermentation. This can only be attributed to the site and particular special growing conditions.
