Wonderful perfume on this medium weighted shiraz, raspberries, red fruited and with lots
of spice characters. Star anise and excellent regional Ironstone gravelly tannins and a light
sprinkling of black pepper with a sweep of fruit on the mid palate.

The complexity of this wine no doubt comes from the three clones of shiraz now grown in
the estates certified organic vineyards (Houghton’s Clone, 174 and 470) and the eight
small parcels used for this shiraz ((making up 95% of the wine) with 5% of this being whole
bunch fermented, supported by the use of small additions of Touriga Nacional (2.7%),
Malbec (0.9%), Marsanne (0.9%) and Viognier (0.5%)
