Big, bold, red berry fruit flavours go into turbo drive with dark chocolate and cedarwood in support. The Mullet Hard Shiraz is a big, delicious and mouth-filling red wine that is unashamedly big on flavour upon opening. Big and delicious, its ready to go.

Mullet wines deliver bolder ripe fruit flavours up front with a bigger body and mouthfeel driving a big, long finish. Or like any great mullet, it's business at the front, party at the back. Hand-crafted and purpose built, these are wines doing all they can to be big on flavour and big on drinkability. Mullet wines putting good times and enjoyment above all else!

A brilliant vintage for Mullet wines. An early cold period leading to a mild temperature growing season ensured full and even ripeness was achieved across red and white varieties alike. Yields were down, but flavours were bold. These big ripper flavours were bold. These big riper flavours arrived in the berry later in the season allowing for picking at higher Baume resulting in above average ABV.

Selected parcels of the vineyard displaying bigger, riper fruit flavour are handpicked purposely for the blend. Harvested earliy in the morning to ensure freshness is retained before destemming entirely prior to fermentation and racking to mostly new and used French oak barriques. Four months in oak with selected barrels belnded back with a smaller component that was left in tank on lees for a fresh yet well-rounded wine, offering maximum flavour impact with full palate coverage! Bottled with minimal fuss and minimal handling.
