The Stratus old vine Single Vineyard Syrah comes from 85+ year old vines located in the Eden Valley. The wine shows off the beautiful Eden Valley region with pure class, a region which is higher in altitude and cooler in climate than the Barossa Valley. This crop produces alluring elegance and finesse to the wines. This small parcel of Syrah was hand-picked, the fruit was destemmed and not crushed and placed into small open top fermenters leaving 30% whole bunch clusters. The wine is then left to mature in 40% New French oak puncheons and 60% seasoned French oak puncheons.
The Cloud Series of red wines have been designed for you to enjoy them now, although they can be cellared for 15 to 20 years if not even longer.
This Stratus Syrah is the pinnacle of the CIEL wine range.
