Tasting Notes

Aroma

Choc berry fruits, dark cherry and plum, anise, mocha and blackberry.

Appearance

Deep maroon.

Palate

Abundant fruitcake spice, chocolatey, meaty, rich and dark fruited. A full bodied, delicious drink with long fine tannins rounding out this powerhouse of a wine. Super fresh and supple drinking now, but the 2021 HJ will certainly reward cellaring for the very patient (and self-disciplined!)

Vintage Notes

2022 was another cracking vintage in McLaren Vale. A long, cool ripening period and no heatwaves meant that we had plenty of opportunity to ripen the Shiraz perfectly.

Winemakers Comments

The HJ Shiraz is dedicated to fourth generation Herbert ‘HJ’ Oliver – a lover and a fighter. He fought to win the affections of his sweetheart Marjorie, before serving in WWII. He then fought to realise his vision of seeing the Taranga property produce only high quality grapes. This commenced with his planting of the ‘Old Block’ Shiraz in 1948 – the same McLaren Vale vines that form the base of this reserve Shiraz today – one of McLaren Vale’s best Shiraz.
