2013 Ernest Schuetz 'EPICA X111' Amarone Method Cabernet Shiraz - Mudgee
The flagship wine of the Ernest Schuetz range, Epica, is made by the ancient Amarone method of partially air drying the grapes on racks. This technique concentrates the grapes and intensifies the fruit flavours, ultimately achieving multiple layers of complexities. A superb wine style with great individuality and always made with an extremely limited production of only 900 bottles. Wow, Wow, Wow!
Winemaker Notes
Dense and textured wine with a concentration of ripe briary fruit. The wine exhibits flavors of bittersweet dark chocolate, piped tobacco, and smoky spiced oak. You may also notice lingering flavors of star anise, sweet liquorice, and menthol.
