Kirrihill VSS Leasingham Shiraz 2022

From the Schrober’s Vineyard in the southern part of the Clare Valley, the team have incorporated 10% of 2024 Shiraz in the blend. The idea is to add some freshness to the complexity. Fermentation and maturation involved a mix of stainless steel tanks and older French oak hogsheads. The result is delicious drinking. Opaque maroon in colour with a vibrant purple rim, we have notes of cassis, plums, blackcurrants, chocolate, licorice and bacon fat. A sleek texture with good focus and impressive length, this is finely balanced. Lots to love here. Enjoy this over the next ten to twelve years.
