Tasting Notes
Aroma
A typical cool climate Shiraz with fragrant perfumed red fruits, pepper
and spice notes.
Palate
The palate shows succulent red fruits of raspberries and
cherries, a medium smooth bodied wine that is supported well with quality
French Oak. The tannins are fine and savory with lingering flavors of red fruits
and spice, a gentle but persistent wine.
Vinification
The Grapes are hand picked and de-stemmed into open fermenters with varying
levels of whole bunches. Gentle pump over’s and plunging used to retain
freshness. After a period of extended maceration on skins the wine was then
pressed and matured in a combination of new (25% New) and older French oak
barriques and puncheons for 10 months before bottling.
Vintage Notes
2022 vintage, starting with good sub soil moisture from a wet winter, spring
experienced regular rain events that dried off in December, poor flowering
conditions resulted in very low yields giving excellent concentration.
A refresh in January with 42.5mm of rain for the month was welcomed,
this was followed by very mild cool conditions in February and March.
The cool and slow ripening period has resulted in exceptional acid
retention and complex flavour development.
Region Notes
The Murdoch Hill vineyard situated in the cool climate Adelaide Hills near the
township of Oakbank, in an undulating valley 420m in elevation. The Cronberry
block is a predominately east-facing slope producing Shiraz of more finesse by
avoiding the harsh afternoon sun. The soil structure is predominately sandy loam
over medium clay subsoil’s, with varying levels of ironstone, quartz and schist
rock.
