Tasting Notes Colour: This wine is crimson red in colour and shows excellent depth.
Nose: Aromatic varietal shiraz: fruits of blueberry and blackberry notes along with rich stewed plum are balanced with integrated vanillin oak.
Palate: A vibrant fruit driven style shiraz, which shows soft fruit flavours and a touch of liquorice and spice. Careful oak maturation adds structure and integrates balanced tannins with a subtle savoury oak finish.
Wine Maker Notes Vineyard Regions: A multi-region blend, with significant proportions from Sunraysia, Riverland and Robinvale.
Vintage Conditions: Extremely cool spring conditions were followed by one of the coolest summers on record. Yields were substantially reduced by the weather conditions however a warm, dry autumn ripened the fruit to perfection. Traditionally warm regions such as the Sunraysia handled the cooler temperatures with ease, producing fruit with excellent depth of flavour.
