Wine

Leogate Estate Wines Western Slopes Reserve Shiraz, made in limited quantities, is sourced from a single parcel of west facing, low yielding vines on the original Brokenback Vineyard.

The fruit is handpicked and fermented on skins in open top stainless steel fermenters. Hand plunging and pump overs are used to extract vibrant colours and flavours from the fruit while moulding the tannin structure.

Once pressed from the skins, the wine is matured in a combination of new and seasoned French oak hogsheads for 15 months.

Deep red purple, Leogate Estate Wines Western Slopes Reserve Shiraz has vibrant berry flavours with a touch of spice and fine, silky tannins. Cellaring potential is 10 years.
