The shiraz portion (70%, Racecourse Lane Vineyard, Pokolbin) underwent carbonic maceration for five days to help give the wine the aromatic lift that I desired, and the pinot gris (30%, Freemans Vineyard, Hilltops) was fermented on skins for a week before pressing, adding some soft tannin and phenolics to the brightly fruited shiraz. The resulting wine exhibits both dried and sweet cherry, meyer lemon and orange peel, with high toned aromatics and a lovely amount of body and tannin that isn't at odds with the bubbles due to disgorgement. - James Turpie, wine maker
