Black Angus Heathcote Single Vineyard Shiraz 2022

A fine vintage in the Heathcote region, with low yields on offer from the vineyards used for this wine. Fermentation in stainless steel over two weeks, before maturation in French oak barrels for fourteen months. Under cork. Deep maroon, this is ripe and exuberant, well supported with oak. Chocolate, black fruits, mocha, coffee grinds and soy swirl around the nose. A wine which has focus, is seamless and offers medium to good length. The oak is certainly evident, but it is well handled. This is an eight to twelve year proposition and there is room for further improvement over that period.
