Dry, Full Bodied style of ShirazHeathcote Estate has quickly emerged as an icon Shiraz producer from a region that continues to show its Shiraz pedigree. Tom Carson crafts this wonderful example that displays a rich bouquet of prunes licorice and plums with a deep dense palate showing quality oak is indicative of a wine which will age superbly.

Full bodied red wines have a noticeably textural mouthfeel with bold, complex flavours. Often deeply coloured.
Dry wines have no trace of sweetness at all.

Good depth and hue to the colour; a rabbit pulled out of the '11 vintage, and with more than average conviction; the perfumed bouquet leads into a seamless, fluid palate driven by dark berry fruits with obvious spice and quality French oak supports.
