Description
// 50% Pinot Noir and 50% Shiraz
"Winemaking techniques used encourage an exotic floral fragrance coupled by an expansive fruitful palate and a fine tannin framework. Highly aromatic with rose petal, blue violets and plum fruits. The palate has a light touch yet is soft and full of juicy fruits, a faintest smoky grip from the use of stalks bringing some structure and drive to the finish. These varieties complement each other beautifully with the perfume and spice of the Pinot and the underlying structure of the cool climate Shiraz." - Winemaker Notes
"The 2023 Light Dry Red Pinot Shiraz leads with raspberry pip, red licorice, pink peppercorns, cherries, Earl Grey tea, blood orange and graphite. The wine is routinely so alluring on the nose, with abundant red fruits that veritably burst forth from the glass. On the palate, the wine shows it is far more complex and serious than the buoyant (almost frivolous!) nose would suggest. Chalky tannins support the lacy-fine fruit and carry it out over the long palate. What a superb wine this is." - 95 Points, Erin Larkin, Wine Advocate
