2021 Nomoya Wines Shiraz Oak / Concrete aging 0.75 Ltr. Red
picture of

Beautiful, dark ruby red color with purple reflection. Black fruit such as black currants and cherries accompanied by spicy notes and a hint of violet. In the mouth the fruit predominates and it never becomes heavy and tiring. A fine acidity and supple tannins keep the wine lively and interesting. Lingering and tasty final.

Delicious with pickled pork ribs (Casseler rib), roasted venison, roe deer, meatballs and goulash.

climate

Continental climate that is dry and very warm in winter as well as in summer. In some places almost desert. So irrigation is almost required. Due to the high temperatures, the grapes remain smaller than elsewhere and give more concentration to the wine.

soil

Sandy soils with slightly more granite and pebbly sandstone in the higher vineyards.

vinification

The grapes are picked in the cool of the night. Fermentation after gentle crushing of the grapes, 30% of which are whole bunches. After prolonged skin contact, the wine is transferred to large barrels where it matures for 3 months and then continues to rest in cement tanks until bottling in November of the same year.
