A Shiraz-lovers Shiraz at a great price, with organic and biodynamic credentials to boot. The aromas showcase juicy raspberries and blackberries with a lick of oak adding dark chocolate and coconut. The glorious McLaren Vale sun brings a plush richness to this Shiraz with lots of ripe, round tannin. The bold fruit is balanced by a dry, graphite minerality, peppery spice and subtle acidity. Pair with chargrilled sirloin steak, rich peppercorn sauce and a bowl of chunky fries.
Nicole loves wine. So much so that she gave up a successful career in Pharmacy, perfected her spitting technique, and moved from sunny Queensland to the wine-drenched laneways of Melbourne. Stints in hospitality, wineries, retail, sales and marketing filled the next few years while Nicole built her knowledge and searched for the right path. She completed the Wine and Spirits Education Trust (WSET) Diploma in 2016 and became a certified WSET Educator the following year. She now juggles a number of roles including teaching people about wine, curating wines lists for restaurants and bars, judging in Australian wine shows and, of course, writing. In 2016 she won the Negociants Working With Wine writing award and has since contributed to Gourmet Traveller WINE, Halliday Wine Companion Magazine and Nourish Magazine.
