There is rich fruit on the palate displaying plums, blackberry and sweet spice from the subtle oak. Nice soft tannins are accompanied by great length of fruit flavour.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ch4\u003e\r\n\tVinification Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tThe grapes are crushed and de-stemmed into fermenters. Yeast is added immediately once in fermenter and the ferments are pumped over twice daily to maximise colour, tannin and flavour extraction. Cooling is used to ensure ferment temperatures remain in the 22-25 degree celcius range which will allow the fruit to display maximum fruit expression. Pressing then occurs approximately seven days after crushing and the  wine is then put into predominately American oak to mature.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ch4\u003e\r\n\tMaturation\u003c\/h4\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\t12 months in American oak.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ch4\u003e\r\n\tVintage Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tThis vintage had a cool, slow ripening period which has in turn produced elegant red wines.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003ch4\u003e\r\n\tHarvested\u003c\/h4\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\r\n\tMarch 2011\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Thorn Clarke - Terra Barossa","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44948771569711,"sku":"A0EE294126SZL","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0741\/4677\/5087\/files\/TerraBarossa_Shiraz_bottle.jpg?v=1771483409","url":"https:\/\/timelesswinesdirect.com\/products\/thorn-clarke-terra-barossa-shiraz-2011","provider":"timelesswines.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
