CELLAR RELEASE AND STRICTLY LIMITED - FIRST IN BEST DRESSED! CELLARED AT WINERY.
“Very good colour; medium-bodied, with good balance and structure; needed a touch more middle palate sweet fruit.” – 4 Stars (90 pts) – 2005 James Halliday – Australian Wine Companion
I simply adore offering you a 10 medal winning Shiraz, perfectly cellared and tip top shape - this Coonawarra Shiraz will knock you socks off. This wine is selected from premium parcels of fruit & this classic Coonawarra Shiraz has benefited from extended maturation in new French oak hogsheads for 20 months. This elegant wine has ripe fruit characters with spicy and generous rich red berry flavours. The wine exhibits balanced supple tannins with an impressive palate that will develop with careful cellaring.
