2020 HANDPICKED WINES COLLECTION SHIRAZ, HEATHCOTE

- CHIEF WINEMAKER Peter Dillon

Aged in French puncheons, 30% new, for 11 months. An excellent dark red with a purple tinge; dark plums, bay leaves, sweet cedary oak, baking spices and an earthy ferrous note set the regional and varietal flavours. It’s deep, rich and concentrat­ed, with plush savoury tannins sashaying across the full-bodied palate, yet this doesn’t feel weighty. It’s complex, detailed and refreshing in its own way. JF 14.8% alc.

$70 / 2030

Tell us something interestin­g about this wine? Fantastic tannin and structure, offset by lifted fragrance and perfume resulting from fruit grown in opposite ends of the region – one parcel from the classic green stone soils of the eastern side of the Camel Range’s, and another from granite outcrops in Tooborac.
