About this product


This Heirloom Vineyards Shiraz was produced from our best Eden Valley Vineyard whose clones and viticulture embody the very best in cutting edge but old school viticulture and winemaking. Hand tended vines, sorted bunch by bunch, naturally open fermented, basket-pressed and stored in well seasoned both American and French oak barrels from bespoke coopers.

COLOUR

As if a Transylvanian Count had visited his tailor and asked for a formal dress cape. Deep, dark, plummy, dense. Impenetrable.

AROMA

Deep aromatics. An inky essence. Perfumed with musk and nutmeg; cinnamon and star anise; boysenberry, freshly crushed and folded bay leaf - and Szechuan pepper gently cracked. These aromatics are intensely layered and mask a deft dose of the best and subtlest oak spice.

PALATE

Velvet. Texture. Tannin. And this tannin is always just - just - in the background, providing that essential support and structure to the rich and deep fruit flavours. Savoury plums and white chocolate. A long acid finish that stretches this tightly coiled red wine out. Here is quintessential Eden Valley shiraz. Flavours run the gamut ends eucalyptus to raspberry; blackberry to pepper; olive to plum.
