Tasting Notes

  • Colour

    Attractive deep black-red.

  • Aroma

    Lifting black fruit and blue fruit with touch of violet and toast oak

  • Palate

    Soft and rich berry fruits on the palate. Fine tannins on the finish allow the berry flavours to linger elegantly.This is primarily from Sue’s Block 11 Shiraz at Blewitt Springs and shows the typical, more spicy and savoury style of this sub-region of McLaren Vale.

Reviews and Awards

  • James Halliday Review

    The vines are grown on the sandy soil of Blewitt Springs, machine-harvested, crushed, 7 days on skins, matured for 18 months in various hogsheads. This is presented without fanfare, simply faithfully reflecting Blewitt Springs's ability to confer that extra bit of intensity and length, radiating health. Drink by 2031.
