Matured in French oak for 14 months (10% new). 2020 was a compounded drought year in SA, and yielded wines of concentration and power. Dry-grown vineyards are at the forefront of yield reduction here. Blood plum, red licorice, blackberries, mulberries, raspberries and spice. This is a satisfying, dense and a compelling drink, especially at the price. Few places on the planet can achieve concentration in shiraz like South Australia can. It's very impressive.

Dry grown Clare Valley vineyards produced small crops of intense, delicious fruit. Powerful, yet elegant - dark and deeply brooding we know that time in the bottle will reward. While restrained and shy in youth, this baby will open up with a few more months in the bottle to show its full promise!
