Tasting Notes

Drink now, or cellar for a further 10+ years
On the nose
The bouquet is very powerful and loaded with mint, tamarillo, eucalyptus and both red and dark berry aromas.
On the palate
An explosive wine in the mouth, the palate tremendously intense and concentrated, powerful and penetrating, with seemingly endless length. Very alive and infused with refreshing and balanced acidity, this extraordinary wine tastes as though it could live forever.
Product Notes
The 2010 Hill of Grace Shiraz is radiant, vibrant and opulent, with characteristic exotic spices, layers of texture, and refined silky tannins with incredible length. It starts with an alluring nose of exotic spices, cracked black pepper, licorice, sage and crushed herbs, complemented by sweeter notes of blackberry, plum and cedar. The complex palate has dark, brooding flavours, rich layers, texture and balance of natural acidity, while the refined, silky tannins provide incredible length. The vintage is rated as 'exceptional' and the wine will develop beautifully over the years to come.
