About this product
Hillside Shiraz is handpicked, open fermented and basket pressed in a method that has not changed at Kay Brothers in over a century. Intense, jammy black fruits and spices with subtle oak on the palate, it continues to be one of the best example of full bodied McLaren Vale Shiraz.

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 colour; soft, round and rich; gentle plum, mocha and vanilla; everything moulded by 2 years in oak. Shares the ultimate retro-style label with Block 6.

Aromas of plum/dark cherry, cocoa, coconut, vanilla, spice, menthol and grass. Full bodied rich ripe palate with flavours of plum, dark cherry, chocolate and vanilla. Again there is a sweet grassy character which I find attractive in this wine. Soft fine grained tannins. Bitter chocolate and spice finish. Deluxe, plush and very satisfying....
