The 2015 Steading will continue to develop with time in the cellar, and provide those with patience great enjoyment well into the next decade.
Hobbs of Barossa Gregor Shiraz
Aromas of black berries, anise, mocha, pepper and spice. Cigar box and savoury notes play a supporting role. Dark berries, coffee and chocolate feature boldly on the palate. Great balance has been achieved between the fruit, acid, oak and tannins. The fruit for our Gregor Shiraz is sourced from Shiraz vines planted in 1988 on our home block high in the Barossa Ranges. The soils up here are rocky, yellow podzolic matter over clays and we utilise double wire trellising in our vineyard.The fruit is handpicked before being placed on racks and semi dried in the style of the famous Amarone wines of Italy. The grapes are then naturally fermented in open vats before being aged in new French oak 1350L vats and puncheons for a period of 24 months. Bottled unfiltered. Hobbs lavish care and craft on their grapes in order to make exceptional wines. Yet as much as considered winemaking counts towards the quality of the final products, soil and climate play a vital part in defining the character of each vintage even before the grapes are picked. The rugged and beautiful Barossa Ranges provide unique conditions for grape growing. Like most of natures gifts, their beauty is more than skin deep, the secrets of soil and seasons bringing so much to the wines Hobbs make. The Hobbs vineyard is situated at the top of the ranges, overlooking Flaxmans Valley. Some of their vines have thrived for a century in this idyllic hillside setting, their grapes only becoming richer and more distinctive as the decades roll by. To taste any Hobbs wine is to savour the very essence of where they live.
