Tasting Notes
Shiraz wines from this region are typically characterised by lifted aromas of lavender and spice.The palate is full of red fruits, leather, cedar and fine, talc like tannins.
Winemaking
To ensure the unique character of this sub region is exemplified in the wine, small open fermenters and our basket press were employed to gently extract the wine.
Aging in the finest quality oak and selection of the truest barrels has created a wine that respects and expresses its place of origin.
From the northern district of Ebenezer, home to some of the greatest vineyards in Australia known for their great ageability and soft tannins.

Black/purple colour and very dense, this looks like one powerful shiraz, yet the nose is really giving and improbably subtle. Smooth berry fruit is its raison d'être, mocha-like complexities add dimension, and oak helps frame it with a savoury toasty structure in great harmony. Fruit concentration flows through ripe, fine-grained tannins seamlessly, and it has excellent balance. Iron fist - velvet glove. 23 MAY 2019

The varietal expression is loud and clear in this delectable red; the fragrant bouquet shows blackberry, plum jam, toasted spice and vanillin oak characters, followed by a concentrated palate that is supple and expansive. Dense yet silky, and finishes fabulously long and appealing. At its best: now to 2030.
