‘Alexander Munro’ Shiraz is our flagship wine and made from the best parcel of shiraz fruit we harvest each year.
2021 was a milder and cooler vintage than the preceding four. Grapes ripened steadily and evenly with limited disease. A classic medium-bodied vintage.
The Roche Estate vineyard in Pokolbin’s ‘dress circle’, is the Shiraz source for this wine. The vines are well established and mature, having been planted in 2001.
A bright crimson red colour, with red and black berry fruit characters on the nose. The palate is medium-bodied with spicy plum and dark cherry flavours. A quintessential Hunter Valley Shiraz with great balance and length of flavour.
This wine has all the characteristics that are required for long term cellaring. 30+ years.
Red meat dishes and aged cheeses.
