The 2021 J.F.R. Shiraz is a blend of three iconic McLaren Vale Shiraz vineyards; Piebald Gully, Gateway and Martins Vineyard. Components from all vineyards were fermented in traditional open fermenters, and following pressing, finished their fermentation in oak; approximately 80% was French and the balance American, 35% of which was new oak. Vineyard parcels were kept separate during fermentation and maturation and were blended three months prior to bottling. The wine is full flavoured with juicy dark red berries, hints of spice, earth, tar and leather, with seamlessly integrated oak.

Aroma
Full flavoured with juicy dark red berries, hints of spice, earth, tar and leather, with seamlessly integrated oak.

Palate
Elegant and structured, mouthcoating tannins are apparent but not overwhelming, leading to a finish with great length.
