REVIEWS

"Deep colour and some toasty oak plus earthy development on the nose. Blackberry conserve on the palate, rich and ripe, sweet fruit, then liberal drying tannins backing up. There's a warm alcohol afterglow but it fits the wine well. Plush wine, a real crowd-pleaser, and astounding value for money. 92/00."

Food Match	REGION Heathcote, Australia WINEMAKER Roberto Delgado SEASON Late season, timely rainfall, low crops, ripe fruit, a quite plush Shiraz. TASTING NOTE Deep red with purple edge. Ripe dark fruit aromas of chocolate and plum. Ripe dark fruits, dense, gentle tannins, cederwood, supple tannins, delicious. WINE STYLE Full bodied dry red, great to drink with a rich Osso Bucco, game meats or with a selection of strong hard cheeses. WINEMAKING Fruit is sourced from carefully selected parcels of Shiraz grown on the red volcanic soils of Northern Heathcote. Fruit is harvested to achieve a balance of fruit ripeness and soft acidity. Grapes are destemmed and crushed into static fermenters. The resultant wine is then fermented for 7-8 days on skins prior to pressing and racking. 25% of the blend was matured for 12 months in older casks and the remainder stays in tank for freshness and brightness. WINE ANALYSIS Alc/Vol: 15.0%, pH: 3.60, TA: 5.9g/L CELLARING Terrific now or enjoy over the next four to six years.
