Fruit for our 2018 Estate Shiraz was selected from our quality low yielding Gomersal Vineyard, fermented on skins for 12 days and then matured in new French oak hogsheads for 18 months to add further complexity and finesse. The very best barrels were selected to produce 705 six packs.

Aromas of blackberry and chocolate combine perfectly with flavours of dark plum and liquorice to produce a balances full bodied wine with structure, silky tannins and excellent length.

FOOD SUGGESTION: One for me, one for you - best served with and in Classic Coq Au Vin (click for recipe).

CELLARING: Drinks beautifully now and will reward cellaring for a further 15 years

93 pts; “Deep and dense purple colour. Rich aromas of berry preserve and mocha. A huge wine filled with densely packed blue and black fruits, dark chocolate, and dark and sweet oak-driven spices. Tannins are gravelly and ripe, big but in context with the fruit weight. Goes on and on to a dry finish. Needs time and will reward many years of cellaring.” – Stuart Knox, The Real Review
