2003 Matilda Red (Merlot/Shiraz/Cab.)

This wine was made from Shiraz, Cabernet and Merlot grapes grown on our own Nindethana Vineyards situated at McLaren Flat, South Australia.
The grapes were picked at optimum ripeness at approx. 13.5 deg Beaume at 5am. To avoid the heat of the day. The grapes were fermented on skins to 2 deg. Be. Before run off and basket pressing. 100% of pressings were returned to the wine, which was aged in American oak hogs heads for twelve months prior to bottling.
This wine is big, full bodied and soft with tonnes of rich berry fruit character from these renowned varieties.
Designed for modern living, this wine will accompany a wine variety of foods and cooking styles; cheeses, grills, roasts or just a snag on the B.B.Q. Drink when thirsty, it will improve for five or so years.
