Heathcote EstateGreenstone Heathcote Shiraz 2018
Dry, Full Bodied style of Shiraz
About this product
Dry, Full Bodied style of ShirazDeep, almost black core with purple edges offers up floral, black plum, violets, blue fruits, hints of vanilla pod & spice on the nose. The palate rides soft & silky right through, offering an abundance of blue fruits, plum, vanilla & white pepper spice. Plum & cherry skins persist with hints of freshly grated nutmeg, milk chocolate & pepper on the finish. There’s a lot going on in this Shiraz, we recommend decanting to see its full potential.

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.

95 points Halliday Companion
The estate vineyard has seven clones, all included in this wine, which was matured in French oak (29% new) for 20 months. The mouthfeel, balance and length are all first class, as are the tannins, which entice a second sip. All up, a quite lovely medium-bodied wine.
