2013 Michael Hall Eden Valley Syrah, Flaxman's Valley

2013 Michael Hall Eden Valley Syrah, Flaxman's Valley

The Naimanya vineyard sits high in the Eden Valley at 520 meters altitude, on the south-west fringe of the tiny sub-region known as Flaxman’s Valley. The soils are sandy loam, gravel and quartz over clay. Its altitude and soil structure allow a long, slow ripening season typically generating marked spice and floral characters.

Poor winter rains followed by a warm and dry summer ensured a very early season. Picked and crushed on 22 March, wild yeast fermented, 10% barrel fermented  with 2 months skin contact, 19 months maturation in French oak (30% new, Saint Martin), no fining or filtration.
