The Sum Shiraz 750mL2017 was a vintage slow to get out of the blocks. A cool and overcast spring meant slow ripening with amazing fruit flavours and zingy natural acids. Constant rain periods thereafter meant everyone had to be on high alert for fungal diseases and picking was sometime dictated by incoming rain events. Crop levels were up after perfect flowering conditions, requiring some fruit thinning and leaf plucking to maintain intense flavour and high quality fruit. Like 2016 Riesling and Chardonnay were outstanding and the Frankland River reds generous and juicy. Overall, for vineyards that maintained vigilant attention it was a very rewarding vintage.
