The 2022 vintage in South Eastern Australia was shaped by a relatively mild growing season with cooler-than-usual conditions in many sub-regions. These slower ripening conditions helped intensify colour and preserve natural acidity, while still allowing the grapes to reach full flavour development. The result was Shiraz fruit with bright aromatics, strong varietal character, and a naturally balanced structure. This vintage is well-regarded for producing reds with depth, vibrancy, and cellaring potential.
Grapes were harvested at optimal ripeness and vinified using traditional fermentation techniques in temperature-controlled conditions. Gentle pump-overs allowed flavour and colour extraction without overpowering tannins. Post-fermentation, the wine was matured with oak influence, adding texture and aromatic layering without overwhelming the fruit. The integration of oak was carefully managed to enhance length and structure while maintaining the purity of the Shiraz profile.
Colour: Deep purple with youthful, vibrant edges.
Aroma: A lifted nose of dark plum and blueberry, backed by subtle oak spice and soft earthy hints.
Palate: Full-bodied and smooth, showcasing ripe blueberry and black cherry flavours. Layers of soft spice and a touch of oak lend depth and roundness, balanced by gentle acidity and fine tannins. The finish is long and harmonious, with lingering notes of fruit and spice.
This Shiraz is a versatile choice for a range of hearty dishes. It pairs beautifully with chargrilled lamb, slow-cooked beef brisket, or rosemary-roasted vegetables. For a vegetarian option, try it alongside mushroom risotto or lentil stew. Aged cheeses like manchego or matured cheddar also complement the wine’s bold fruit and structured finish.
