Oakridge Hyde Park Shiraz 2024

From the Hyde Park vineyard in the Coldstream sub-region of the Yarra Valley, this is a cracking cooler climate Shiraz. The colour here is a shining purple, almost navy blue. The nose reveals notes of chocolate, cassis, florals, blueberries, aniseed and dried herbs. There is focus and intensity here, with very good length through to the finest of satiny tannins. Enjoy this over the next eight to ten years. Anyone who thinks you can’t get cracking Aussie Shiraz outside the warmer South Australian regions needs to expand their horizons.
