A marriage of vineyard site, soil, climate and suitable varieties has helped to continue the fine reputation of Malakoff vineyard as one of the state’s most celebrated grower sites.
The winemaking at Tambo employed techniques to protect the essential pure Pyrenees Shiraz character
Following a warm primary ferment, then 2 weeks extended maceration on skins, the wine was transferred to oak barrels for secondary fermentation and 24 months maturation in new to four year old French barriques ensuring complexity, smoothness and integration of all flavour components before bottling by gravity.
