2022 'Eastside' Shiraz
A bright and lively expression of shiraz. A myriad of fresh forest fruits evident, cherry, mulberry and blueberry. Aromatic spices develop with time in the glass.The freshness carries through to the palate, dominated by red and blue fruits... hallmark Eastside.
The liveliness and freshness of the acid strucutre elevates the red fruit. Medium weighted and it ‘rolls’ over the palate seamlessly from front to back. Worthy of some time in the cellar, we think this wine will be delicious for another eight to twelve years. Try with your next smoked brisket.

Winemaker's Note: Good winter rain allowed soil profiles to be full, giving the vines a great start to the growing season. A remarkably cool summer followed, providing perfect conditions for healthy balanced vines. The long ripening period produce fruit with a perfect balance of good colour, high natural acidity, and concentrated flavours. This wine is an excellent showcase for the unique expression of Shiraz grown on our Estate. A combination of inoculated and spontaneous fermentation on skins for an average of 14 days in open vats. Gentle cap management to retain elegant tannin and aromatic qualities.
