Vineyard Notes

The best three barrels were carefully selected from our 2024 Shiraz sources.

Winemaking

Whilst 2023 was a great Hunter red wine vintage, for us, 2024 has proven to be better again. The 2024 Shiraz has a great depth of flavour and colour, and more importantly, impeccable fruit acid balance.

Tasting Notes

A deep crimson with purple hues in the glass. There is concentrated dark and brooding fruits. The palate is medium—full bodied with a supple and silky mouthfeel. The length of flavour and balance is exemplary.

Peak Drinking / Cellaring Potential

This wine has all the characteristics that are required for very long term cellaring.

Food Matches

Red meat dishes and aged cheeses.
