Wine Analysis

Vineyard: Seifried Brightwater Vineyard
Sugar at Harvest: 23.3°Brix
Date of Harvest: Late March 2021
pH of Wine: 3.69
T.A of Wine: 5.9g/L
Residual Sugar of Wine: <1g/L (dry)

The Vineyard

The Brightwater Vineyard is situated 15km from the coast and is sheltered from the south by the Richmond Ranges. The ‘soil’ is a combination of rocks and boulders which is very hard on the farm equipment, but vital for holding the warmth of Nelson’s sun and for ripening Syrah.

Winemakers Note

The grapes were harvested at the peak of ripeness in early April and quickly transported to the winery. Grapes were then de-stemmed and inoculated with yeast for fermentation on skins. Fermentation continued for two weeks with the ferment being plunged twice daily throughout this period. Following fermentation, the young wine was transferred to a mixture of new, one and two year old French barriques where it stayed for 13 months while undergoing malolactic fermentation and barrel maturation.

Tasting Note

The 2021 Seifried Nelson Syrah has lovely fruit components together with licorice and a dried spice complexity. Supple tannins support bright plum flavours leading to a smooth palate
