The Shack is made from a single vineyard plot, only 7 hectares in size, where De Martino grow some of their best Syrah. Situated in Isla de Maipo (within the Maipo Valley), the vineyard is characterised by its mild Mediterranean climate. This is perfect for Syrah as it gives the vines a long growing season with moderate to warm temperatures, resulting in beautifully concentrated flavours in the grapes. The soils in this vineyard are also extremely gravelly, bringing elegance to the tannins and allowing perfect maturity of the grapes.
