Tasting Notes

Aroma

Red cherries, plums and mulberies with hints of savoury spice.

Appearance

Deep red with a purple hue.

Palate

Intense flavours of cherries and plums with complex dark chocolate and structural oak. The palate is full with soft and silky tannins.

Vinification

The fruit for this wine was picked in early March, off our best block of Shiraz on our Chairman’s Vineyard, and transported to the Hunter Valley. The fruit fermented in small open fermenters. Fermentation lasted 7 days with gen tle hand plunged twice a day. Following pressing it was put to a 1 year old French oak fouderer for malolactic fermentation and maturation for a further 14 months. The wine was then filtered and bottled.

Cellaring Potential

10+ years in optimal conditions.

Vintage Notes

The 2021 vintage began with wet conditions in winter that then led into a dry and warm summer period. which set the vines up well leading into harvest. The final ripening period continued to be dry and conditions were ideal for steady ripening and flavour development. The fruit was in great condi tion at picking and had excellent flavours and aromas.

    A beautifully composed, medium-weight wine with impressive succulence, complexity, integrity and length. The hand-picked grapes come from the Post Office block, where vine age spans from 30 to more than 100 years. Blueberry and cherry flavours with savoury tones of cedar and forest floor. It needs time to open, so decant a few hours before serving to showcase the wine at its best. Points: 95/100
