Winemaking

Pristine parcels of low yielding Shiraz were harvested between February to April, 2022, from carefully selected sites throughout New South Wales and South Australia. The parcels were fermented separately in static, rotary and ganimede fermenters, ahead of pressing and racking to French and American oak for maturation for several months. After rigorous blending the Black Shiraz was created, resulting in an opulent wine brimming with generous flavours.

Tasting Notes

Aroma

Deeply coloured, with decadent aromas of blackberry compote,
blue plum, kirsch and chocolate truffle.

Palate

A layered and bold palate of fruits of the forest, plum pudding and toasted spice. The tannins are silky and plush, generating structure and length to the palate.

Aaron Brasher - The Real Review

88 Points

A youthful, inky red in appearance. Lifted aromas of plum, mulberry, spice and dark chocolate. Dark fruited and powerful in flavour, juicy, structured and with a lick of charry oak. Decent length and mouth-feel
