The fruit for this Skillogalee Shiraz was handpicked from low yielding, unirrigated vines growing on the slopes around the homestead, around 450m above sea level. The fruit was destalked & partially crushed, fermented in open tanks with submersion boards to ensure the emersion of the skins for maximum colour & flavour extraction, & then gently basket-pressed. Malo-lactic fermentation took place partially in tank with completion in barrel. Maturation for 20 months in a combination of French & American oak hogsheads has added considerable balance & complexity. This wine has been bottled using a Stelvin Closure in order to maintain it's ripe fruit characteristics & guarantee it's quality when the bottle is opened. Limited stock. ...

Shows the unmistakable floral, rose petal aromas & flavours of pure Gewurztraminer fruit, sometimes also reminiscent of passionfruit or lychees. It has a strength of character without being oily or overpowering, is intensely fruity but dry on the finish & has good balancing acidity. The perfect accompaniment to spicy Eastern dishes where its ripe fruit & textured mouthfeel are a great foil to strong spices. The Clare Valley is perfect for ripening aromatic white varietals as the evenings are quite cool & help to build up intense aroma compounds. Fruit is sourced exclusively from the Skillogalee estate, the vineyard yielding around 35 hl/ha. After harvesting, the grapes are allowed a few hours skin contact before crushing & chilling with an overnight settle in tank. The juice is racked off the gross lees & fermentation continues at a cool, controlled temperature in tank. Bottled in June 2004 then aged in bottle before shipping. Only 400 cases made annually. ...

Skillogalee - Hand Picked Cabernet Malbec Rose 2012-13 75cl Bottle

The wine shows fresh raspberry and cranberry on the nose. The palate is fresh and lively, held together by a fine structure of natural acid and fine tannin balance. This wine is best served chilled, especially during the warmer months and is a great match for most food styles, particularly fresh seafood and contemporary Asian cuisine. All fruit was blended at the receival bin, destemmed and chilled to 5 degrees C. To achieve the desirable level of colour and flavour extraction the fruit was left on skins for 16 hours in the press. The free-run juice and light pressings were then cold settled, racked and fermented cool to express the clean fruit characters of both the Cabernet Sauvignon and the Malbec. Grape: 75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Malbec.
