Winery notes (2022 Vintage)
"Bright red fruit flavours and savoury spices. Mocha and toasty oak flavours evolve with the fruit flavours adding to the many layers within this wine. Soft acidity and fine-grained tannin provide length to the finish. This full bodied, elegant, cool climate style Shiraz drinks well in its youth, but can be cellared for up to 10 years with confidence.
The fruit was destemmed to static red fermenters and allowed to cold soak for three days before inoculation with a selected specialised yeast isolate. Routine pump overs lasting for around 10 days ensures optimum extraction of colour, flavour and tannin. The ferment was then drained and pressed at dryness to tank, allowed to settle, and then racked to tank for malolactic fermentation. The resulting wine was then matured in a combination of tank and seasoned French oak barriques for 12 months before blending, filtration and bottling."

5 Stars & 94/100 Sam Kim, Wine Orbit, March 2023 (2021 Vintage)
"Dark fruit richness lead the way with nuances of dried herb, pepper spice and cedar, it's succulent and plump in the mouth delivering excellent weight and persistency. Wonderfully framed by chalky tannins, finishing sturdy and persistent. At its best: now to 2033."
