2013 WILLOW BRIDGE ESTATE BLACK DOG GEOGRAPHE SHIRAZ

RRP $65 / 2033

Hand-picked, bunch-sorted, open-fermented, matured in French hogsheads (33% new) for 18 months. The colour is still deep and fresh; a very good shiraz, with high quality estate-grown grapes, and the vinification steps all well conceived and executed. The fruits cover plum, blackberry and red cherry, all with a juicy disposition. Impressive wine. 13.4% alc

WINEMAKER Kim Horton What do you love about aged wine?

The Willow Bridge Black Dog Shiraz is made specifically to age, relying on its density of fruit, balance and tannin structure to evolve into a wine that’s textural, complex and mature. We hold the wine in our cellars for up to three years after bottling to ensure it reaches drinkers just the way we intended.
