Fermentation was carried out at a warm temperature (25-28 degrees ). The ferments were manually pumped over to provide good control of tannin extraction. Each fermenter was treated as a separate parcel of wine and once dry was filled to American oak (40% new). Following malolactic fermentation the wines were racked and returned to the same oak. Parcels remained in barrel for an average of 18 months prior to blending. Only the best barrels from the multiple parcels were used to make the final blend. Once blended the wine was prepared for bottling.\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eReview:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"This impressive and manicured 2019 Shiraz William Randell has class written all over it.
