Museum | Pertaringa Over the Top Shiraz 2018
Vintage: The 2018 growing season started slowly, but warmer weather eventually helped to speed things up. Fruit set throughout the region was good and the low rainfall and warm weather from January to April resulted in great sugar development, while a cooler than average March offered ideal night temperatures for colour and flavour development.
Story: Acknowledging the very best site, climate, vines and production techniques, this Shiraz is named Over the Top to proudly declare our aim to make the finest wine we possibly can.
Nose: The nose offers elegant notes of cherries and raspberries with a touch of pepper and other spices, as well as some toasty oak aromas.
Palate: The palate is rich and elegant with lots of superb fruit flavours, hints of minerality and well-integrated oak, followed by great structure on the lingering finish.
Cellaring: Drink now to 2030
