Tasting Note
Dense, concentrated Shiraz with a meaty‑savory edge: deep plum and black cherry, fragrant dark spice, olive and leather notes, defined tannins and a long, flavorsome finish.

Food Pairing
Roast lamb, grilled steak, braised beef, mushroom risotto; aged cheddar and other hard cheeses; Korean BBQ, char siu, spicy Szechuan or Malaysian dishes.

Production Method
Estate-grown biodynamic fruit from Yangarra; hand-harvested, fermented with minimal intervention (open ferments/wild yeasts typical), matured in French oak barrels/puncheons, light filtration.

Vineyard Info
Yangarra Estate Vineyard (Blewitt Springs, McLaren Vale) is a single‑vineyard estate converted to certified organic and biodynamic management (cert. 2012), famed for old bush‑vine Grenache and Rhône varieties.
