The 2022 Clare Valley Shiraz highlights aromas of blueberry and raspberry with a hint of spice, while on the palate dark fruit flavours, framed with fine oak for a long finish.

Fruit is grown on our Estate, Yertabulti and Provis vineyards, situated at the northern end of the Clare Valley, this is the perfect climate for maturing our premium red grapes. Vines are 38+ years old.

Some good rain events toward the end of winter and into the start of spring provided a good start to the growing season, with soil profiles observed at maximum moisture levels still at the start of November. Vines put on good strong early growth, with the emergence of inflorescence providing an insight of the potential yields to come.
