This superb single-vineyard Shiraz is sourced from a six-acre plot replanted in 2001. Sadly, the original 1912 vineyard was ripped out in the mid-1980s thanks to the SA government’s now-notorious vine-pull scheme. Here in the Moppa sub-region, the grapes grow on sandier soils than in Greenock (a mere 2km away as the crow flies), producing more perfumed wines with finer tannins. This release is no exception, with the magnificent 2021 vintage producing a wine of intense dark bramble fruit and abundant spice.

Reviews

"Northern Barossa shiraz from the subregion of Moppa, matured in French oak for 24 months. Deep crimson/magenta. Deep blackberry, plum and black cherry fruits with hints of clove, dark chocolate, brandied fruits, Christmas cake, olive tapenade, pepper and earth. Lovely fine, compact tannin heft, impressive fruit density and a cassis-rich flow on spicy fruit on the finish."
95 points, Dave Brookes, The Wine Companion
