Description An astonishing 12 separate clones of Shiraz from across Sidewood's Adelaide Hills vineyards goes into this amazing 96pt, multi-Gold-winning wine. Majority hand-picked, selectively harvested, wild yeast fermented with partial whole-bunch, whole-berry, extended maceration. Matured in French oak (300L puncheons and 500L hogshead) for 18 months, 25% new. A host of high scores include a massive 96pts from Halliday, who praises its flawless balance and calls it Exceptional value. Sam Kim, Wine Orbit adds that is "beautifully weighted palate displaying supple texture backed by fine-grained tannins, finishing long and delectable". This is a feast of black and blue fruit, with spicy and savoury edges. Delicious on its own or as a versatile partner to filet mignon or truffle and porcini pasta. Endlessly complex and approachable.
