The Taltarni ‘Dynamic’ range of wines represents the style, taste, and artistic expression of our winemakers.
Style: A limited-edition wine made from single vineyard fruit grown on our estate in the Pyrenees. A bold, smoky red wine well-known in Central Spain (Monastrell) and part of the GSM blend in Southern Rhône Valley, France.
Tasting Notes: With a deep-plum colour, this medium-bodied wine is perfectly balanced, while still showing the finest points of the varietal. This wine displays the distinctive Mourvèdre characteristics of white pepper and spice, whilst a plush palate delivers notes of soft spice and fresh red berry lingering long on the finish.
Region: Pyrenees, Victoria, Australia
Variety: Mourvèdre 88% Shiraz 12%
Vintage: The 2021 vintage was an extremely dry season. This Mourvèdre was selected from a site-specific block, and fruit thinned throughout the season to reduce yield and increase fruit intensity.
Winemaking: Harvested from mature estate vines the fruit was destemmed into small open fermenters and allowed to initiate fermentation naturally, then inoculated mid-ferment to ensure completion. Using a combination of heading down boards and pump overs the fruit was allowed to warm naturally to complete fermentation. The wine was pressed and transferred into French oak barriques, where malolactic fermentation was undertaken.
