The Kester Vineyard was named in honour of Keith Tulloch's pioneering great-grandparents and uncles. This is a notably juicy, lipsmacking wine that ticks all the boxes. There are red fruits among the blacker notes of its siblings, and while oak and tannins both play important roles, there is an appealing fruit purity to this wine at the same time as the quality of the tannins speaks loud and clear.

99% Shiraz, 1% Viognier

The aromas show a wealth of fruit - jammy, blackberry and inky cherry. Plum and hints of fresh red raspberry, underscored by the classic Kester savoury notes of garrigue/crushed her and black olive. Flavours are bright and direct, showing muscular structure with trust focus. Pristine fruits are packed in with sustained intensity spanning the flavour spectrum, from red cherry through to blackberry to black olive, moderated by supply mocha, spice and oak tannin. As it sits in the glass, the 'terroir' savouriness becomes even richer adding deeper velvety notes of liquorice, herb, coffee, smoke and game.
99% shiraz from 93yo estate vines in Broke-Fordwich, co-fermented with 1% viognier, 5 weeks on skins, matured for 18 months in French oak. Powerful, potent and long. Needs more time.
