Produced by winemaker Ben Glaetzer with quality fruit hailing from Langhorne Creek in South Australia, this full-bodied shiraz features Ribena inspired blackcurrent aromas with hints of smoked almond and quince while the cinnamon and cherry syrup notes linger on the palate. The perfect shiraz to keep on hand for any occasion.
This Shiraz was de-stemmed, crushed and pumped over twice a day for nine days. The wine mateured for 12 months exclusively in second and third use French and American oak to retain aromas and freshness in the wine.
2022 has been one of the best vintages experienced in Langhorne Creek. Mid-winter rainfall was above-average and a few riverside vineyards also received a small flood giving the soil a good soak. The rainfall ceased quickly in September. As usual, cooling breezes across Lake Alexandrina helped to maintain excellent natural acidity. Extended periods of southerly air streams kept conditions cool with a refined flavour and acidity.
