Description

Estate Shiraz from the House Block at Boongarrie, ironstone under deep red soil, vines raised from cuttings off Poonawatta's 1880 Shiraz.
A highly regarded vintage after punishing dry years in 2019 and 2020. More rain and a long, dry, cool ripening period made a vintage with plenty of life ahead of it.
Sage, graphite, mulberry. Vegan.
