Robert Oatley Signature Series Shiraz 2024 (McLaren Vale)

The Robert Oatley Signature Series draws on a remarkable portfolio of vineyards nurtured by the winemaking talent of Larry Cherubino showcasing Australia’s most successful wine styles and regions. Bob Oatley’s mantra was that all wines should be a “darned good drink”, and the high quality Signature Series delivers immediate appeal, with satisfying flavours over an elegant frame. Each wine embodies the grape varietal and region in which it was grown.

This is a blend of selected parcels of Shiraz from the Blewitt Springs, Willunga, and McLaren Flats districts of the Vale. Late summer conditions were dry & warm to hot, which meant the vintage was quite early, fast ripening and compressed, with minimal disease pressure. We experienced lower yields than average across the region, delivering grapes of great colour and fruit intensity. Fermented on skins
in a combination of open and closed fermenters and matured in French oak for 9 months. Enjoy now to 2034.
