TASTING NOTES

The deep, red loam soils lying over limestone provide this vineyard, located at Sweetwater Ridge with its unique signature. It is a deeply layered wine of exceptional richness and brightness, delivering a velvet smooth, contemporary expression of Hunter Shiraz. The dark berried fruit is framed by a silky tannin structure, and extends through a long and savoury finish.

REVIEWS

Great colour; the juicy medium-bodied palate has great balance and energy thanks to the savoury, earthy tannins which emerge on the finish and lingering aftertaste. Screwcap.13.8% alc. Rating 94 James Halliday, Australian Wine Companion 2010
