Shiraz

Wendouree Shiraz is handpicked from bush vines that date back to the original plantings in 1893. Dry grown in red brown loam soils over shale and limestone, the vines produce low yields of exceptional fruit.

Fermentation occurs in open stainless steel tanks to ensure a controlled environment for malolactic fermentation, resulting in longer cellaring potential. The wine then matures in predominantly seasoned French oak for 12 months.

Purple crimson, Wendouree Shiraz displays pure varietal flavours of fresh black fruits with hints of spice and firm tannins. A superbly balanced wine with a powerful finish.

One of Australia's finest examples of Shiraz. Cellaring potential is 30 years.
