Signature Series Shiraz 2022 6x75cl

McLaren Vale

This is a blend of selected parcels of Shiraz from the Blewitt Springs, Willunga, and McLaren Flats districts of the Vale. The 2022 McLaren Vale vintage was excellent, delivering grapes of great colour and fruit intensity. The summer was cool, providing gentle ripening conditions. The harvest period was mild giving a longer ripening period and later than usual start to harvest. Fermented on skins in a combination of open and closed fermenters and matured in French oak for 12 months. Enjoy now to 2033.
