2021 Single Vineyard Carr Shiraz
$70.00
$420.00
A special parcel of Shiraz from our Carr vineyard in the Coldstream sub-region of the Yarra Valley. These Single Vineyard releases are site expressive wines where we as winemakers take a back seat to let their unique terroir do the talking.
Brooding dark notes of tobacco leaf, graphite and fennel surround a core of dark plums and black olive flesh. Seductive, gravelly tannins envelop the palate with a bright fruit acidity providing a spark of light through a long finish.

The inaugural release of this single vineyard wine; 20% whole bunches and matured in French puncheons (13% new). A medium bright crimson purple. A complex and brooding bouquet with aromas of dark fruits, spice-rack spices, incense and some cedar from the oak. Still a baby on the palate, too. Medium bodied, this has excellent depth with impeccable fine-grained and very persistent tannins providing backbone and structure. You can open this now (I would give it a quick decant), but you'll thank me later if you still have a bottle 10 years from now.
