Crushed and destemmed. Fermented with cultured yeast, matured 18 months in French oak (30–40% new). Your classic Central Victorian shiraz in a nutshell, with a down-to-earth (literally) appeal of baked earth, Aussie bush scents mingling with ripe blackberries and woody oak spice. The palate is full and generous, with a lingering, smoky savouriness. Traditional, yes, in keeping with its namesake, who knew a thing or two and established the Tahbilk red wine style. Tasted months before release and still coming together, but with an assured confidence. Bronze medal at Perth Royal Wine Show '20..
