Need a wine to cellar that won't break the Bank? Well, this is it! Enjoy now or hide for future use....
A whopping 96 points from James Halliday. Crafted from 70-year-old estate vines and matured in French hogshead for 32 months, the care and expertise which have gone into this wine is immediately clear. The fruit has absorbed the oak with consummate ease, cedar and cigar box intertwine with a matrix of blackberry, satsuma plum, dark chocolate with fine-grained tannins on a medium to full-bodied palate with excellent length and balance. All in all one hell of a wine.

Award and Accolades
96 Points - James Halliday, Australian Wine Companion "From estate vines up to 70yo, matured in French hogsheads for 32 months. Contrary to expectations, the fruit has absorbed the oak with consummate ease, cedar and cigar box just part of a matrix of blackberry, satsuma plum, dark chocolate and fine-grained tannins on a medium to full-bodied palate with excellent length and balance."
From the Winery
Shiraz carefully picked and selected from our Blewitt Springs vineyard to showcase the terroir of our unique vineyard. Minimal intervention has allowed this wine to truly express its sense of place. Full bodied with layers of forest fruits and lashings of dark chocolate. This wine is ready to drink now or will benefit from careful cellaring for up to 10 years.
