  Trentham Heathcote Shiraz 2010
 
 
Trentham Victorian Shiraz.gif
 
Woo Hoo - GOLD SYDNEY TOP 100!

This full bodied red comes from a remarkable spot in the glorious region of Heathcote and shows an intense nose with plum and dark cherries to the fore with peppery spice and vanillin oak, these flavours carry over to the bold but soft palate. It’s nicely balanced with judicious oak and impressive natural acids. A wine that you’ll find instantly attractive, it marries well with robust dishes of lamb and beef.


93 - James Halliday, Australian Wine Companion:
"An elegant, medium-bodied shiraz with spicy nuances running through red and black cherry fruit; the tannins and oak are totally integrated on the balanced, supple palate."

Past Accolades and Awards:

James Halliday: 94
Clear red-purple; the depth of fruit on the bouquet and medium-bodied palate belies the colour; ripe satsuma plum and spice/pepper nuances drive the bouquet and palate alike, oak a means to an end, not an end in itself.
Best Drinking: To 2024
