2007 Granite Belt Syrah
Tasting Notes
You say 'Shiraz', I say 'Syrah' - it is the same grape none the less. In France Shiraz is known and grown as Syrah. Our 2007 Syrah shows inky blackcurrant and black pepper aromas on the nose. Dark plum and spice combine with fine tannins and integrated oak to deliver a soft, plump generous plate. This wine will reward careful cellaring.
Vineyard Location and Condition
The fruit for our 2007 Granite Belt Syrah was grown by Davydd and Cheryl Westlake at Bowden's vineyard in the Ballandean district of the Granite Belt and was picked in the first week of April 2007. The Granite Belt is situated on the Great Dividing Range 850m above sea level and 95 km inland from the coast. The winters are cold and frosty and summers warm producing a continental climate. Most of the region's rainfall comes in spring feeding the growing buds and shoots. The soil is largely composed of granite, somewhat on the acidic side and is very free draining.
