Shiraz was the first red grape variety planted in Langhorne Creek at Bleasdale in 1858 and continues to thrive today. Individual vineyard blocks are picked and crushed separately before maturation and blending.
This is a delicious wine, defined by a judicious hand of reduction, imparting tension to the cavalcade of blue and dark fruit allusions, iodine, aniseed and the billow of creamy toned oak. Smooth as, with enough grip to impart a drinkability and a second or third glass. Not always an easy feat for a full-bodied wine from this neck of the woods.
