Two years in brand new American and French oak hogsheads are barely perceptable in a wine of such awesome magnitude, few will be able to even speak after such enjoyment that lies within. This is an event wine, that only the greatest of a generation can of

Full crimson-purple; from the estate''s 85-year-old Filsell Vineyard, the wine matured for two years in new American and French oak hogsheads, and a further two years in the cellar prior to release. Picked before the heatwave, it is an incredibly rich and plush shiraz, with black fruits, oak and dark chocolate all competing for attention. Will surely outlive its cork, hence a shorter drink-to date.
