This wonderfully elegant Shiraz shows intense, pristine, blackberry fruit and ripe, silky tannins. It almost has a Pinot Noir elegance to it and, luckily, the quality of future vintages will only be getting better too as Voyager's new clones come on line.

Deep ruby, purple in colour showing intense and creamy aromas of dark compote berry fruit with hints of blackberry, plums and mulberries peeking through. On the palate waves of the same dark berry fruit show early providing a density and voluptuousness to the mouth-feel that remains deep into the mouth and rolls out through the back. It is joined by just a hint of spice and some subtle glimpses of faint leather and sandalwood.

HARDY'S Thomas Hardy Cabernet, Coonawarra, Margaret River

Penley Estate Helios Cabernet is the flagship release from a renowned Coonawarra vineyard, representing the “best of the best” fruit crafted under the guidance of Kate Goodman, one of Australia’s most respected winemakers. The wine is made with wild yeast, open fermentation, and extended maceration, then matured for 18 months in French oak (with a significant portion of new barrels). This results in a wine with deep concentration, power and elegance.

This legendary Coonawarra Shiraz has evolved into a true masterpiece of smoothness. The vibrant "crunchy" berries and floral rose notes have mellowed into a deep, velvety richness, while the black pepper and French oak now provide a soft, warming hug of flavor. Once brooding and intense, it is now perfectly polished and approachable, offering a rare, luxurious experience that is incredibly easy to sip. This is a special-occasion wine caught at its absolute peak of elegance.
