2021 Heathcote Shiraz
In Stock
High praise comes in far and wide for this Heathcote Shiraz. It’s typical of the region showing black cherry and fennel aromas alongside a palate that’s broad and savoury with hints of blood plum, liquorice and roasted beetroot. It’s juicy, well balanced and sensational value to boot. A great partner for salt-crusted eye fillet.
Tasting Note
WINEMAKERS COMMENTS
As with previous vintages, the grapes come from two main vineyards, one off the deep red Cambrian soil, the other from tougher more gravelly ground. The first gives us rich, chocolatey and earthy flavours whilst the other has more highly fragrant notes with good acid and sweet fruit. The wine that results is our take on Heathcote shiraz.
PALATE & AROMA
Rhubarb and mulberry flavours on the palate. Mouth filling with fine grainy tannins, well balanced with a clean finish. Ripe black and red berry fruits with liquorice, spice and warm earth.
FOOD MATCH
Chargrilled eye fillet with a fresh garden salad dressed with oil and balsamic vinegar.
