About this product


2024 Vintage Report - Adelaide Hills
The 2024 vintage in Adelaide Hills delivered exceptional quality despite challenging conditions. Lower-than-average yields resulted from poor flowering and fruit set, but this natural crop reduction concentrated flavours beautifully across all varieties. A mild, dry summer and consistently cool growing season allowed for slow, even ripening - particularly beneficial for our Shiraz, which developed intense yet delicate flavour profiles and vibrant colour concentration. These conditions were ideal for crafting elegant, aromatic wines with remarkable purity.
Tasting Notes
Sourced from our premium Balhannah vineyards in the Adelaide Hills, this 2024 Shiraz showcases how challenging conditions can yield extraordinary results. While yields were modest, the fruit quality was exceptional - revealing vibrant red fruits, lifted violet aromatics, and the signature black pepper or clove spice that defines our cool-climate terror. Thoughtful French oak integration complements rather than competes with these elegant characteristics.
Distinctive Qualities:
Low-yield concentration - Exceptional flavour intensity
Cool-climate signature - Vibrant acidity with peppery spice
French oak harmony - Supporting structure without dominance
Food versatility - Perfect with duck breast, mushroom risotto or spiced lamb
For those who appreciate wines where less yields more, this limited 2024 release captures the essence of a challenging but rewarding vintage.
Serve at 16-18°C to appreciate its aromatic complexity.
