The Jarrah Shiraz is only made in small volumes, using carefully selected premium fruit from our oldest Shiraz vines, planted in 1971.Traditional fermentation in small open vessels, which are hand plunged 3 times daily, the 2014 Shiraz was then pressed off skins after extended skin contact. Malolactic fermentation occurred while maturing in 1/3 new French Oak followed by a maturation in barrel for 18 months.

Deep crimson, with ruby flecks. Aromas of black cherries, peppery spice and chocolate. Black cherries and plums with layers of spice and earthiness with chewy tannins on the lingering finish.

95 Points

From shiraz vines planted in 1971, matured for 18 months in French oak (approx 1/3 new). At 7yo this year, everything has started to soften and evolve, exposing a core of still-sweet black fruits, cloistered by finely textured and supporting tannins. The density is a standout; the texture is completely satisfying and full, finished by exotic spice, star anise, clove, quince, fig, satsuma plum and salted licorice. Complex and spicy.
