International Wine & Spirit Competition 2004 - Commended
International Wine Challenge 2005 - Seal of Approval
This superb Shiraz is made from a selection of our premium Shiraz vineyards, displaying true individuality. Crop reduction and selective handpicking at optimum ripeness increased fruit quality. The wine was matured for 16 months in 225 litre oak casks – 80% French and 20% American – all new. It was blended and bottled in August 2002. It is a hugely intense wine, combining aspects of tabacco, smokiness and spiciness, but soon develops into ripe berry fruit that overwhelms. Due to the size of the production, this wine is unique and represents the pinnacle of quality from our Delheim cellar
