About this product
A classic reflection of Grampians Shiraz. Concentrated aromas of blue berry fruits, lifted violets, anise, and spicy oak with flavours of dark cherry compote and a medley of middle eastern sweet spice. Ripe yet soft fruit tannins and sweet cedary oak offer further complexity.

Shiraz is clearly a standout among red varieties in the region and this vibrant, mid-weighted wine showcases the reasons: violet scents segue to a sash of anise, menthol, iodine and cardamom-soused tannins, encasing giddy flavours of blueberry, satsuma plum and bing cherry. Each element slots mellifluously into the jigsaw of balance. Fermented with 20% whole-clusters, the recipe is spot on for the vintage.
