Let's not mince words here - this is a monstrous wine. Super concentrated, super rich and extremely powerful. Soft, plush tannins and the use of 100% American oak (46% new) is just the cherry on top of this beautiful black forest cake. This could be comfortably cellared for 15-20 years - serious stuff. The 2022 Blue Eyed Boy is unmistakably McLaren Vale Shiraz. Plush, rich, and unapologetically bold. Deep purple in the glass, it opens with vibrant aromas of blueberry, ripe plum, and mocha cream - see what we mean about black forest cake. The palate is all about power and polish - layer after layer of fresh, juicy berries, a hint of aniseed spice, and a smooth, lengthy, finish laced with dark chocolate and ripe tannins. It’s lush, expressive, and beautifully structured, with velvety tannins carrying the flavour long after the last sip. A showstopper now, with the depth, acid and tannin to age gracefully for years to come.

A beautifully elegant form of Shiraz from Picardy displaying notes or red fruits, cracked black pepper and spice. A fresh, vibrant wine with suede like silky tannins and a wonderfully lingering finish. Super stylish effort.

Every so often there are parcels of wine that generate tremendous excitement amongst the winemakers at Schild Estate. They set this aside to make Prämie, the wine that defines the best of the vintage and the land on which it was grown. Intense primary fresh plum flavours show again on the palate, where they hold their presence all the way through to roll out soft and pillowy at the finish. A firmly present, but fine tannin framework provides just enough focus and lift for the fruit to ensure added complexity, but retaining vibrancy to the mouth flavours of this Shiraz.
