Rich, intense varietal flavour with remarkable complexity, structure and depth of fruit. Exceptional cellaring potential of at least a decade. Produced in very limited quantities, Zema Estate’s Family Selection Shiraz represents the ‘cream of the crop’.
The flagbearer (along with its Cabernet Sauvignon sibling) for Zema Estate. As well as a selection from the best shiraz block, it receives significant new oak. It has exceptional intensity and drive, yet is no more than medium-bodied, spicy/savoury/peppery notes giving both texture and flavour complexity, and thereby extending its length.
