Grapes
100% Shiraz
Farming
Estate-grown on 25‑year-old vines planted in red clay over limestone at the Omensetter Vineyard in McLaren Vale
Winemaking
Wild fermentation with 25% whole bunch in open vats for three weeks, then basket pressed and matured for 20 months in French hogsheads (15% new)
Tasting Notes
Brooding and powerful, with black plum, blood orange zest, paprika, and a savory, earthy core. Fine tannins give structure, while notes of dark chocolate, spice, and smoked meat linger on the finish.
