2017 Renzaglia Mount Panorama Estate Shiraz

-

Hand-picked, 4 days cold soak, wildfermen­ted with 15% whole bunches and 10% whole berries, pressed to French oak (25% new) after 14 days open-top fermentati­on, matured for 15 months. Seriously good wine in an off-the-beaten-track (petrol heads not included) terroir. Exemplary balance and finesse for a shiraz that has taken all there is to offer in its swathe of black fruits. 13.9% alc. 2018 Tyrrell’s 4 Acres Hunter Valley Shiraz Planted in 1879 on the right-hand side of the driveway leading to the winery, on a precious patch of volcanic soil. Hand-picked, vineyard-sorted, wild yeastopen fermented, matured in a single 4yo French 2500l cask for 15 months. This is the heart of the Ashman’s Vineyard. This is quintessen­tial, medium-bodied Hunter Valley shiraz from an exceptiona­l vintage, framed by the freshness of the alcohol, in turn presenting gently earthy red and purple fruits and the gentle throb of acidity. 13.8% alc.
