Probably one of the best opportunities you will ever have of gaining some premium Heathcote Shiraz at an outrageously good price! This wine deal is probably the best I have offered and rest assured, there is heaps of these two wines in my cellar at home! Limited stocks sourced from a critically acclaimed winery, make the most of this cancelled international order.
WOW! This smashing producer has won an array of high praise and accolades over the years. Awards have been given from shows such as the International Wine Challenge in London, Australian Small Winemakers Show, le Concours des vins du Victoria amongst others.
The vintage was a ripper and I was offered a very small parcel direct to be sold as cleanskin so the producer could turn wine into cash! Needless to say instead of $29 per bottle retail - Here is your opportunity to stock up on a beautiful Heathcote Shiraz for $10. Rich, beguiling, scented and serenely evolved already this wine is delicious. Violets and dark brambly fruits on the nose with a gleamingly wicked colour to excite.
Dark ominous brooding black cherry bulls blood crimson juice hats the bottle and laps the glass when purse with inky intensity. The nose is bright with violets and dusty notes of cassia and chocolate, cedar and spice. It's as though as you take it to your lips a smile really starts to broaden into a silly grin! A full, intense layered mouth fill starts you trying to decipher what you love most and first. Is it the dark juicy fruit, or the plush, long lasting palate, or the rich blend of structural intensity from oak and fruit marrying brilliantly. All I can say is this wine is for snobs, wine makers and smart consumers alike, simply - GLORIOUS! Limited stocks, excellent pedigree and thus, I advise you to be quick!

Awards and Accolades
Sourced from a respected winery, i am not at liberty to divulge who, but rest assured this producer has won an array of high praise and accolades over the years.
95 Points - James Halliday, The Australian Wine Companion "Sturdy, dense and inky. No prisoners taken. Concentrated plum, blackberry jam, toast, roasted nuts and gum leaf flavours. Needs a few years but has a long life ahead of it. For all its might, it's beautifully put together."
Wine Selectors Magazine "This is an unbelievable Shiraz, especially given its modest price. It has an alluring nose of blood plum, blackberry, white pepper and cedar – leading to a delicious core of black fruit with a plummy juiciness. Fully ripe, velvety tannins married with subtle oak give it an amazing harmony and length."
