A bright, vibrant magenta in colour, this Shiraz exhibits lifted aromas of blackberries, redcurrants with hints of cracked pepper and delicate spices.

Reviews
  • The vines are said to include the oldest in Langhorne Creek (planted 1891, 1894 and 1940); all dry-grown and hand-picked. The ’21 vintage has resulted in excellent colour, bouquet and palate. It really is an attractive medium-to full-bodied shiraz, and has a very long future for those with the long term in the mind's eye.
