Hewitson Ungrafted Barossa Valley Shiraz 2022
Special Price $80.00 Regular Price $90.00
This is sourced entirely from old, estate grown, ungrafted Barossa vines. The fruit from these gnarly old vines is handpicked before whole bunch fermentation in open fermenters, then pressed into French oak where it spends 15 months. It has an elegant, fragrant nose with plenty of spice and perfume. The palate is bright, but underscored with old vine, black fruited gravitas. Exceptional.

No matter whether your palate preens for something light on its feet and expressive, OR something powerful and sinewy, this Hewitson Ungrafted Shiraz has you covered.
