Shiraz is synonymous with Australia and is grown in most regions from the warmest regions where it produces full-bodied, ripe and plummy wines, to cool regions where a spicy, peppery, medium-bodied wine is the result. The 2019 growing season started with mild weather and below average rainfall. Some late spring rain provided a bit of relief from the dry conditions. A heatwave in January was luckily too early in the ripening cycle to cause any damage to the fruit. This was followed by a very mild and dry finish to the vintage, allowing good hang time and flavour development to the smaller than average crop. The nose is vibrant and fruit forward with plums, mulberries and a hint of dustiness. The palate is beautifully smooth with notes of plums and a touch of vanillin oak, followed by a soft, lingering finish.
