Sew & Sew Wines ‘Sashiko’ McLaren Vale Shiraz 2020

This shiraz is made gently with minimal interference using more traditional wine making techniques. The grapes are crushed and fermented in two tonne open fermenters. The ferment is hand plunged morning and night. Once dry it is basket pressed, settled, and transferred to barrels where it remains for 12 months. The oak is a mixture of 20% new French & American hogsheads and 80% matured barques and hog’s heads. The wine is not filtered or fined but carefully racked to ensure clarity and purity.
