The Gander Shiraz

The Shiraz grapes for this wine are sourced from Block 3 (clone BV30) and Block 4 (clone 1654) within the Schubert Estate vineyard

Colour: Garnet, with deep dark core with ruby rim.

Aroma: Complex amalgam of blue berry compote, black currant, and blue scented violet florals. With further glass swirling delicate wafts of cocoa, cured bacon and charcuterie come to the fore, complimented with subtle French oak five spice tones complete the stimulation of the senses.

Palate: Upon the first taste the mouth surfaces are swamped with ripe plum, wild raspberry and blueberry flavours, framed with silky tannins that extend the sensuous experience for considerable time. The new oak is present, however interwoven with the lush primary fruit. The wine is amazingly balanced with only fruit flavour being in excess.

Only the 4th vintage of this limited release wine. Although already a 5-year-old, and drinking beautifully at the moment, The Gander Reserve will continue to evolve rewarding the owner with exceptional. drinking over the next 20-25 years.
