Another classic Peppertree Shiraz. A wine of power and elegance with aromas of plum and dark chocolate. Beautifully balanced primary fruit,acid and tannins, leading to a smooth dry finish.

2018 growing season was warm and dry. Despite this, the vines were in a perfectly balanced and healthy state heading into vintage.
Canopies were strong and full, and the fruit set and ripening was consistent with fantastic flavours. Clare Valley at its best.

Our Peppertree Vineyard Shiraz is hand-picked, de-stemmed with a component of whole bunch and goes through a wild fermentation in
