Description:
Eight at the Gate Single Vineyard Cabernet Shiraz 2019呈現深紅色澤。香氣展現乾果、煙燻橡木和香草氣息,層次豐富。入口可感受到橡木、桑葚紅果和白胡椒風味。這款酒體豐滿,單寧結構良好,風味濃郁,帶有巧克力和乾花香。

這款酒由59%的Cabernet和41%的Shiraz混釀而成,在全新和曾使用過的法國橡木桶中陳釀34個月。2019年的葡萄生長季受益於冬季充沛的降雨,土壤濕度充足。芽體萌發時間與長期平均值一致,早期新梢生長強勁。12月中旬至3月初極為乾燥,降雨量極少。2月下旬和3月初的溫和白天和涼爽夜晚有助於葡萄的最後成熟階段,形成濃郁的品種特色和清脆的天然酸度。

Eight at the Gate Single Vineyard Cabernet Shiraz 2019 boasts a crimson red color. The aroma features dried fruits, charry oak, and vanilla, offering layers of complexity. On the palate, oaky highlights meld with mulberry red fruits and white pepper. This rich, medium to full-bodied wine showcases structural tannins, bold flavors, chocolate, and dried floral notes.

A blend of 59% Cabernet and 41% Shiraz, this wine undergoes vinification in new and seasoned French Oak hogsheads for 34 months. The 2019 vintage benefited from exceptional winter rainfall, resulting in full soil moisture profiles. Budburst occurred on par with long-term averages, accompanied by solid early shoot growth. The period from mid-December to early March was extremely dry, with minimal rainfall. Mild days and cool nights in late February and early March aided in the final ripening process, creating strong varietal characters and crisp natural acidity.
Winery:
Two sisters(Jane Richards and Claire Davies) with eight children between them, develop an estate vineyard and become award-winning wine producers. It sounds like the start of a modern fairy-tale but this is the true story of Eight at the Gate Wines. And this story is like many others involving farming families; a cycle of hard work, heartbreak, resolve, and rewards.
