Experience McIntyre Vineyard’s Distinctive Shiraz

Discover a truly expressive single vineyard Shiraz that captures the essence of Mornington Peninsula’s unique terroir. Crafted exclusively from McIntyre Vineyard grapes, this premium Australian red reflects an exceptional growing season. Balanced moisture nurtured vibrant canopies early on, while warmer January and February days concentrated flavors for an earlier harvest. The result? A wine of remarkable intensity worth the compressed season.

Artisanal Craftsmanship:
– Hand-harvested at optimal ripeness
– Wild yeast fermentation with 100% whole bunches
– Gently pressed after 23 days, settled for 24 hours
– Aged 16 months in French oak barrels (20% new)
– Natural malolactic fermentation & unfined/unfiltered bottling

Sensory Journey:
Pour a deep ruby glass revealing layered aromas of fragrant violets, juicy blackberry pastilles, and sophisticated spice notes – think licorice, black pepper, cloves, and nutmeg. The palate delights with vibrant plum and red berries, elegantly framed by those signature spices. Experience beautifully integrated tannins balanced with tangy red berry acidity, leading to an exceptionally long, juicy finish that lingers memorably.

This limited-production Shiraz offers discerning wine lovers an authentic taste of place – where meticulous vineyard management meets minimal-intervention winemaking for a bottle that stands apart.
