Shiraz

South Australia

2016

The Wine Spots South Australia Shiraz offers aromas of wild berry and mulberries with hints of spice. The medium bodied palate offers generous amounts of red berry flavors and supple tannins, with hints of Viognier adding richness and texture.

South Australia

South Australia is the country's most diverse wine region. The region's climates, topography and soil compositions allow us to produce a fresh, fruit-driven Shiraz, Australia's quintessential wine.

Winemaking

The grapes for this Shiraz were harvested in February and March. After destemming, the grapes were fermented in both static potters and rotary fermenters. Warm temperatures at the onset of fermentation and 3-5 days post ferment maceration helped extract soft fleshy tannins and build an wine structure.

Food Pairings

Enjoy with brisket, beef stew, lamb chops, Cajun or Mexican cuisine.

These older vineyards are highly prized by Australian winemakers.
