Region
Petite Sirah is the result of cooperation between winemaker and grower who together shaped a young vineyard to produce this fine wine. This vineyard is located on the costal-plain close to Gedera not far from the town of Rehovot. We have been working with the vineyard over the past few years and fine-tuning the viticulture every year.
Winemaking
The grapes were selectively picked in mid-September. During fermentation the grape cap was pumped over several times a day to increase the depth of colour and levels of extraction in the gentlest way possible. On completing fermentation, the wine was pressed out and racked into new French and American barrels where it was matured for 12 months.
