Medium-bodied, off-dry and complex. This is a blend of 2019 Shiraz aged in oak and 2021 Shiraz aged in stainless. Both vintages were exceptional. The 2 were then blended and a fairly small dosage for sweetening was added. This is spiced, aromatic, plummy, and Christmas cakey all at once. Lovely. Learn More

An incredibly rich and vibrant nose laden with black cherries, violets blackcurrants, herbs and cedar leads to a palate pleasingly awash with the same. Texture, length, intensity and the fine-grained finish are all exceptional. Learn More

The fruit is rich, the flavours complex and long, showing off the vine age as chocolate, cherries, pepper, blueberries and more cavort long before being wrapped up in quality, cedary oak. As good as the previous vintage was, this is better. Learn More
