Great Southern shiraz typically exhibits a compelling combination of spices, pepper, juicy red berries and plum flavours. It is typically a more elegant, ‘food friendly’ style when compared with the better-known shiraz styles of the Barossa and McLaren Vale regions of Australia.

This shiraz was picked and crushed to stainless steel tanks where it underwent a very gentle maceration over a two-week period. The must was then pressed and the wine was transferred to oak (a combination of new and second use French oak barriques) for eleven months before preparation for bottling.

The wine is a deep raspberry colour. The aromatics display notes of red berries, dark plum and charry oak characters with subtle cool climate spicy undertones and savoury notes. The palate is effortlessly smooth and displays juicy red and black berry fruit characters flowing through to a long, subtly spicy finish balanced by ripe soft tannins.
