2023 Red Right Hand Shiraz Grenache Tempranillo
Red Right Hand is the result of the union of three great varieties, each bringing its individual attributes from the warmer Margaret River region and the warm days and cold nights of the Frankland River region. Together they produce a wine of great complexity and interest.
We are all familiar with the hero variety – shiraz – full of colour, flavour and structure. Savoury tempranillo adds depth, while grenache contributes its heady perfume and sweet fruit mid palate. Each component was fermented separately in open topped vats with traditional fermentation techniques, and the resulting parcels were matured in French barriques (10% new) for 10 months before blending.
The wine displays awesome colour; deep crimson red, bright and vibrant in hue. The bouquet is a complex mix of ripe berry fruits and savoury aromas. The palate displays rich and fruit sweet fullness with a complex and savoury textural finish of mature tannin.
