Deep crimson red colour with a bouquet of dark berries and cherries are bountiful with a touch of spicy sweet oak. Copious amounts of dark brooding fruits, mouth-filling and firm tannins expressive of the last pressings of the grapes.

At 54m above sea level Wolf Blass Altitude Shiraz develops complex fruit aromatics of dark berry and cherry stone with a touch of peppery spice. A fresh, juicy, medium-bodied palate with concentrated dark berry and cherry fruit, subtle savoury oak and finely woven, refined tannins providing length and focus. Brim full of regional limestone coast character.

A Shiraz for the big boys, fresh red currants and blueberries leap from the glass and are interwoven with violets and spice. The palate is rich in juicy raspberries; blueberries and spice fill the mouth and are supported by bright acid and silky tannins. The finish is fleshy, juicy and plush with wonderful medium bodied balance and style.

Stockyard takes its name from the 100+ year old stone ruin on our Farms vineyard. Originally a slaughterhouse, today it occupies a much more serene position overlooking rows of low-yielding Shiraz vines. Seductive aromas of blackberry, plum and liquorice with savoury white spice on the nose, the palate is rich and concentrated with dark fruit flavours. The spice carries through to the palate, backed by intensely powerful tannins and integrated oak characters from eighteen months maturation in new and one-year old French and American hogsheads. This wine will benefit from careful cellaring for 5 years and beyond.

The Ferngrove Frankland Shiraz is deep crimson in colour with aromas of blackberry, plum and blueberry with licks of vanilla oak. Depth of blueberry and opulent ripe plums in the flavour, it is mouth filling and flavoursome, complex and spicy with long fleshy tannin finish.

The Wolf Blass Grey Label Shiraz is an opulent concentrated and complex style with plenty of spicy fruit and a dash of chocolate. True to the style that Wolf himself made from the very beginning of this now iconic brand, this is very tasty and enjoyable now yet it has the weight and complexity to improve with cellaring.

Deep ruby red with a lovely youthful violet hue. A fragrant nose of fresh blueberries, a little vanillin, mixed spice, cedar and a floral hint of perfumed violets. Approachable, graceful palate of mulberry and blueberry compote. Up front, juicy flesh of plum with underlying notes of chocolate coated coffee beans, mint, black pepper, and a hint of earthy truffles. A solid backbone of supporting acidity extends these characters towards the finish.

This wine was pressed from its skins early, before the end of fermentation. Its a technique thats perfectly captured plush fruit flavours and a velvety structure.

St Hallett Faith Shiraz is one of the all time customer favourites at Dan Murphy's Ripe flavoursome concentrated Shiraz from the Barossa Valley with great mouthfeel and length of flavour with fine soft tannins. Drinks nicely now and will age well in the medium term.
